145 @chapter What is Muse?
147 Emacs Muse is an authoring and publishing environment for Emacs. It
148 simplifies the process of writing documents and publishing them to
149 various output formats.
151 Muse consists of two main parts: an enhanced text-mode for authoring
152 documents and navigating within Muse projects, and a set of publishing
153 styles for generating different kinds of output.
155 This idea is not in any way new. Numerous systems exist -- even one
156 other for Emacs itself (Bhl Mode). What Muse adds to the picture is a
157 more modular environment, with a rather simple core, in which "styles"
158 are derived from to create new styles. Much of Muse's overall
159 functionality is optional. For example, you can use the publisher
160 without the major-mode, or the mode without doing any publishing; or if
161 you don't load the Texinfo or LaTeX modules, those styles won't be
164 The Muse codebase is a departure from emacs-wiki.el version 2.44. The
165 code has been restructured and rewritten, especially its publishing
166 functions. The focus in this revision is on the authoring and publishing
167 aspects, and the "wikiness" has been removed as a default behavior
168 (available in the optional @file{muse-wiki} module). CamelCase words are
169 no longer special by default.

280 @chapter Compiling and Installing Muse
282 Muse may be compiled and installed on your machine.
284 @subsubheading Compilation
286 This is an optional step, since Emacs Lisp source code does not
287 necessarily have to be byte-compiled. It will yield a speed increase,
290 A working copy of Emacs or XEmacs is needed in order to compile the
291 Emacs Muse. By default, the program that is installed with the name
292 @command{emacs} will be used.
294 If you want to use the @command{xemacs} binary to perform the
295 compilation, you would need to edit @file{Makefile.defs} in the
296 top-level directory as follows. You can put either a full path to an
297 Emacs or XEmacs binary or just the command name, as long as it is in the
302 SITEFLAG = -no-site-file
305 Running @code{make} should compile the Muse source files in the
306 @file{lisp} directory.
308 @subsubheading Installation
310 Muse may be installed into your file hierarchy by doing the following.
312 Edit the @file{Makefile.defs} file so that @env{ELISPDIR} points to
313 where you want the source and compiled Muse files to be installed and
314 @env{INFODIR} indicates where to put the Muse manual. Of course, you
315 will want to edit @env{EMACS} and @env{SITEFLAG} as shown in the
316 Compilation section if you are using XEmacs.
318 If you are installing Muse on a Debian system, you might want to change
319 the value of @env{INSTALLINFO} as specified in @file{Makefile.defs}.
321 If you wish to install Muse to different locations than the defaults
322 specify, edit @file{Makefile.defs} accordingly.
324 Run @code{make} as a normal user.
326 Run @code{make install} as the root user if you have chosen installation
327 locations that require this.
330 @node Getting Started, Projects, Installation, Top
331 @comment node-name, next, previous, up
332 @chapter Getting Started
335 To use Muse, add the directory containing its files to your
336 @code{load-path} variable, in your @file{.emacs} file. Then, load in
337 the authoring mode, and the styles you wish to publish to. An example
341 (add-to-list 'load-path "<path to Muse>")
343 (require 'muse-mode) ; load authoring mode
345 (require 'muse-html) ; load publishing styles I use
346 (require 'muse-latex)
347 (require 'muse-texinfo)
348 (require 'muse-docbook)
351 Once loaded, the command @kbd{M-x muse-publish-this-file} will publish
352 an input document to any available style. If you enable
353 @file{muse-mode} within a buffer, by typing @kbd{M-x muse-mode}, this
354 command will be bound to @kbd{C-c C-t}.
356 If the currently opened file is part of a defined project in
357 @code{muse-project-alist}, it may be published using @kbd{C-c C-p}.
359 You should also type @kbd{M-x customize-group}, and give the name
360 @samp{muse}. Each of the options has its own documentation.

365 @chapter Creating and Managing Muse Projects
368 Often you will want to publish all the files within a directory to a
369 particular set of output styles automatically. To support, Muse
370 allows for the creations of "projects". Here is a sample project, to
371 be defined in your @file{.emacs} file.
374 (require 'muse-project)
376 (setq muse-project-alist
377 '(("website" ; my various writings
378 ("~/Pages" :default "index")
379 (:base "html" :path "~/public_html")
380 (:base "pdf" :path "~/public_html/pdf"))))
383 The above defines a project named "website", whose files are located
384 in the directory @file{~/Pages}. The default page to visit is
385 @file{index}. When this project is published, each page will be
386 output as HTML to the directory @file{~/public_html}, and as PDF to
387 the directory @file{~/public_html/pdf}. Within any project page, you
388 may create a link to other pages using the syntax @samp{[[pagename]]}.
390 By default, Muse expects all project files to have the file extension
391 @file{.muse}. Files without this extension will not be associated with
392 Muse mode and will not be considered part of any project, even if they
393 are within a project directory.
395 If you don't want to use @file{.muse}, you can customize the extension
396 by setting the value of @code{muse-file-extension}.
398 If you don't want to use any extension at all, and want Muse to
399 autodetect project files based on their location, then add the following
400 to your Muse settings file.

481 @chapter Rules for Using Markup
484 A Muse document uses special, contextual markup rules to determine how
485 to format the output result. For example, if a paragraph is indented,
486 Muse assumes it should be quoted.
488 There are not too many markup rules, and all of them strive to be as
489 simple as possible so that you can focus on document creation, rather

518 Paragraphs in Muse must be separated by a blank line.
520 @cindex paragraphs, centered
521 @strong{Centered paragraphs and quotations}
523 A line that begins with six or more columns of whitespace (either tabs
524 or spaces) indicates a centered paragraph.
526 @cindex paragraphs, quoted
528 But if a line begins with whitespace, though less than six columns, it
529 indicates a quoted paragraph.
532 @cindex monospace, rendering blocks
533 @cindex HTML, rendering blocks in monospace
534 @strong{Literal paragraphs}
536 The @verb{|<example>|} tag is used for examples, where whitespace should
537 be preserved, the text rendered in monospace, and any characters special
538 to the output style escaped.
541 @cindex HTML, inserting a raw block
542 There is also the @verb{|<literal>|} tag, which causes a marked block to
543 be entirely left alone. This can be used for inserting a hand-coded
544 HTML blocks into HTML output, for example.

548 @section Levels of headings
551 A heading becomes a chapter or section in printed output -- depending on
552 the style. To indicate a heading, start a new paragraph with one or
553 more asterices, followed by a space and the heading title. Then begin
554 another paragraph to enter the text for that section.
556 All levels of headings will be published. Most publishing styles only
557 distinguish the between the first 4 levels, however.

571 @section Directives at the beginning of a document
574 Directives are lines beginning with the @samp{#} character that come
575 before any paragraphs or sections in the document. Directives are of
576 the form ``#directive content of directive''. You can use any
577 combination of uppercase and lowercase letters for directives, even if
578 the directive is not in the list below.
580 The @code{muse-publishing-directive} function may be used in header and
581 footer text to access directives. For example, to access the
582 @samp{#title} directive, use @code{(muse-publishing-directive "title")}.
584 The following is a list of directives that Muse uses.
589 The author of this document.
591 If this is not specified, Muse will attempt to figure it out from the

653 the footnote, place this definition at the bottom of your file.
654 @samp{footnote-mode} can be used to greatly facilitate the creation of
655 these kinds of footnotes.
657 Footnotes are defined by the same number in brackets occurring at the

807 @cindex inter-project links
808 The @command{muse-wiki} module also allows for InterWiki links. These

814 Blog::DocumentingMuse
819 In the first case, the interwiki delimiter is @samp{::}, @samp{Blog} is
820 the project name, and @samp{DocumentingMuse} is the page name. In the

847 If a link to a locally-available image is encountered in the link
848 description, Muse mode will attempt to display it if your version of
849 Emacs permits this. The following example will display correctly and

851 exists in the @file{../pics/} directory.
854 [[TestPage][../pics/TestLogo.png]]
857 @cindex images, without a description
858 An image link is not required to have a description. The link

957 You will need to have @command{pyblosxom.cgi} or @command{blosxom.cgi}
958 installed on a machine that you have upload access to.
960 The following additional components are required in order to make the
961 date of blog entries display as something sensible.
965 A script to gather date directives from the entire blog tree into a
966 single file. The file must associate a blog entry with a date.
969 A plugin for (py)blosxom that reads this file.
972 These 2 things are provided for @command{pyblosxom.cgi} in the
973 @file{contrib/pyblosxom} subdirectory. @file{getstamps.py} provides the
974 former service, while @file{hardcodedates.py} provides the latter
975 service. Eventually it is hoped that a @command{blosxom.cgi} plugin and
976 script will be found/written.
978 Here is a sample listing from my @file{timestamps} file, which maps
979 each file to a date. This can really be in any format, as long as your
980 date-gathering script and your plugin can both understand it.

993 longer `#date yyyy-mm-dd-hh-mm', a title (using the #title directive),
994 plus whatever normal content is desired.
996 The date directive is not used directly by @command{pyblosxom.cgi} or
997 this program. You need to have the two additional items from the former
998 section to make use of this feature.
1000 There is a function called @code{muse-blosxom-new-entry} that will
1001 automate the process of making a new blog entry. To make use of it, do
1006 Customize @code{muse-blosxom-base-directory} to the location that your
1007 blog entries are stored.
1010 Assign the @code{muse-blosxom-new-entry} function to a key sequence. I
1011 use the following code to assign this function to @kbd{C-c p l'}.
1014 (global-set-key "\C-cpl" 'muse-blosxom-new-entry)

1027 title and date directives will be inserted automatically.

1328 The module facilitates the keeping and publication of a journal. When

1331 The input format for each entry is as follows.
1334 * 20040317: Title of entry
1339 "You know who you are. It comes down to a simple gut check: You
1340 either love what you do or you don't. Period." -- P. Bronson
1344 The "qotd", or Quote of the Day, is entirely optional. When generated
1345 to HTML, this entry is rendered as the following.
1349 <div class="entry-qotd">
1350 <h3>Quote of the Day:</h3>
1351 <p>"You know who you are. It comes down to a simple gut
1352 check: You either love what you do or you don't. Period."
1355 <div class="entry-body">
1356 <div class="entry-head">
1357 <div class="entry-date">
1358 <span class="date">March 17, 2004</span>
1360 <div class="entry-title">
1361 <h2>Title of entry</h2>
1364 <div class="entry-text">
1365 <p>Text for the entry.</p>
1371 The plurality of "div" tags makes it possible to display the entries in
1372 any form you wish, using a CSS style.
1374 Also, an .RDF file can be generated from your journal by publishing it
1375 with the "rdf" style. It uses the first two sentences of the first
1376 paragraph of each entry as its "description", and auto-generates tags
1377 for linking to the various entries.

1623 @section Publish a poem to LaTex or PDF
1625 The @code{muse-poem} module makes it easy to attractively publish and
1626 reference poems in the following format, using the "memoir" module for
1627 LaTeX publishing. It will also markup poems for every other output
1628 style, though none are nearly as pretty.
1637 Annotations, history, notes, etc.
1640 Once a poem is written in this format, just publish it to PDF using the
1641 @code{poem-pdf} style. To make an inlined reference to a poem that
1642 you've written -- for example, from a blog page -- there is a "poem" tag
1643 defined by this module.
1646 <poem title="name.of.poem.page">
1649 Let's assume the template above was called @file{name.of.poem.page};
1650 then the above tag would result in this inclusion.
1658 John Wiegley uses this module for publishing all of the poems on his
1659 website, which are at

1860 List of markup rules for publishing a page with Muse.
1862 The rules given in this variable are invoked first, followed by whatever
1863 rules are specified by the current style.
1865 Each member of the list is either a function, or a list of the following
1869 (REGEXP/SYMBOL TEXT-BEGIN-GROUP REPLACEMENT-TEXT/FUNCTION/SYMBOL)
1874 A regular expression, or symbol whose value is a regular expression,
1875 which is searched for using `re-search-forward'.
1877 @item TEXT-BEGIN-GROUP
1878 The matching group within that regexp which denotes the beginning of the
1879 actual text to be marked up.
1881 @item REPLACEMENT-TEXT
1882 A string that will be passed to `replace-match'.
1884 If it is not a string, but a function, it will be called to determine
1885 what the replacement text should be (it must return a string). If it is
1886 a symbol, the value of that symbol should be a string.
1889 The replacements are done in order, one rule at a time. Writing
1890 the regular expressions can be a tricky business. Note that case
1891 is never ignored. `case-fold-search' is always bound to nil
1892 while processing the markup rules.

1896 This is the order that the publishing rules are consulted, by default.
1897 This may be changed by customizing @code{muse-publish-markup-regexps}.
1901 @item trailing and leading whitespace
1902 Remove trailing and leading whitespace from a file.
1907 This is only recognized at the beginning of a file.
1918 @item explicit links
1919 Prevent emphasis characters in explicit links from being marked up.

1925 Whitespace-delimited word, possibly with emphasis characters
1927 This function is responsible for marking up emphasis and escaping some

2242 XML-style tags are the best way to add custom markup to Muse. This is
2243 easily accomplished by customizing this list of markup tags.
2245 For each entry, the name of the tag is given, whether it expects a
2246 closing tag and/or an optional set of attributes, and a function that
2247 performs whatever action is desired within the delimited region.
2249 The tags themselves are deleted during publishing, before the function
2250 is called. The function is called with three arguments, the beginning
2251 and end of the region surrounded by the tags. If properties are
2252 allowed, they are passed as a third argument in the form of an alist.
2253 The `end' argument to the function is always a marker.
2255 Point is always at the beginning of the region within the tags, when the
2256 function is called. Wherever point is when the function finishes is
2257 where tag markup will resume.
2259 These tag rules are processed once at the beginning of markup, and once
2260 at the end, to catch any tags which may have been inserted in-between.

2453 John Wiegley started Muse upon realizing that EmacsWiki had some serious
2454 limitations. Around February 2004, he started making "emacs-wiki version
2455 3.00 APLHA", which eventually became known as Muse.
2457 Most of those who frequent the emacs-wiki mailing list continued to use
2458 emacs-wiki, mainly because Planner hasn't been ported over to it.
2460 As of 2004-12-01, Michael Olson became the maintainer of Muse, as per

2515 have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for

2517 if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
2518 in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
2520 To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
2521 anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
2522 These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
2523 distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
2525 For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
2526 gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
2527 you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the

2536 that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
2537 software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
2538 want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
2539 that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
2540 authors' reputations.

2543 patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
2544 program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
2545 program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
2546 patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
2548 The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
2549 modification follow.
2552 @appendixsec TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
2555 @center TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
2560 This License applies to any program or other work which contains
2561 a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
2562 under the terms of this General Public License. The ``Program'', below,
2563 refers to any such program or work, and a ``work based on the Program''
2564 means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
2565 that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
2566 either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
2567 language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
2568 the term ``modification''.) Each licensee is addressed as ``you''.
2570 Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
2571 covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
2572 running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
2573 is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
2574 Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
2575 Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
2578 You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
2579 source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
2580 conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
2581 copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
2582 notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
2583 and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
2584 along with the Program.
2586 You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
2587 you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
2590 You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
2591 of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
2592 distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
2593 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
2597 You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
2598 stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
2601 You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
2602 whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
2603 part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
2604 parties under the terms of this License.
2607 If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
2608 when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
2609 interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
2610 announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
2611 notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
2612 a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
2613 these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
2614 License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
2615 does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
2616 the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
2619 These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
2620 identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
2621 and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
2622 themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
2623 sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
2624 distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
2625 on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
2626 this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
2627 entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
2629 Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
2630 your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
2631 exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
2632 collective works based on the Program.
2634 In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
2635 with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
2636 a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
2637 the scope of this License.
2640 You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
2641 under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
2642 Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
2646 Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
2647 source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
2648 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
2651 Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
2652 years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
2653 cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
2654 machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
2655 distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
2656 customarily used for software interchange; or,
2659 Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
2660 to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is
2661 allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
2662 received the program in object code or executable form with such
2663 an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
2666 The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
2667 making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
2668 code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
2669 associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
2670 control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a
2671 special exception, the source code distributed need not include
2672 anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
2673 form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
2674 operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
2675 itself accompanies the executable.
2677 If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
2678 access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
2679 access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
2680 distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
2681 compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
2684 You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
2685 except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
2686 otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
2687 void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
2688 However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
2689 this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
2690 parties remain in full compliance.
2693 You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
2694 signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
2695 distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are
2696 prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
2697 modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
2698 Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
2699 all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
2700 the Program or works based on it.
2703 Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
2704 Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
2705 original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
2706 these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
2707 restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
2708 You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
2712 If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
2713 infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
2714 conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
2715 otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
2716 excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
2717 distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
2718 License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
2719 may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent
2720 license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
2721 all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
2722 the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
2723 refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
2725 If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
2726 any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
2727 apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
2730 It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
2731 patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
2732 such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
2733 integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
2734 implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
2735 generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
2736 through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
2737 system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
2738 to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
2741 This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
2742 be a consequence of the rest of this License.
2745 If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
2746 certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
2747 original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
2748 may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
2749 those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
2750 countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates
2751 the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
2754 The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
2755 of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
2756 be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
2757 address new problems or concerns.
2759 Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
2760 specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and ``any
2761 later version'', you have the option of following the terms and conditions
2762 either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
2763 Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of
2764 this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
2768 If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
2769 programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
2770 to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free
2771 Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
2772 make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals
2773 of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
2774 of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
2777 @heading NO WARRANTY
2784 BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
2785 FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN
2786 OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
2787 PROVIDE THE PROGRAM ``AS IS'' WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
2788 OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
2789 MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS
2790 TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE
2791 PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
2792 REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
2795 IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
2796 WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
2797 REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
2798 INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
2799 OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
2800 TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
2801 YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
2802 PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
2803 POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

2810 @center END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
2814 @appendixsec Appendix: How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
2816 If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
2817 possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
2818 free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
2820 To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
2821 to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
2822 convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
2823 the ``copyright'' line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
2826 @var{one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.}
2827 Copyright (C) @var{yyyy} @var{name of author}
2829 This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
2830 it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
2831 the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
2832 (at your option) any later version.
2834 This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
2835 but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
2836 MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
2837 GNU General Public License for more details.
2839 You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along
2840 with this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc.,
2841 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301, USA.
2844 Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
2846 If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
2847 when it starts in an interactive mode:
2850 Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) 19@var{yy} @var{name of author}
2851 Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
2852 This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
2853 under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
2856 The hypothetical commands @samp{show w} and @samp{show c} should show
2857 the appropriate parts of the General Public License. Of course, the
2858 commands you use may be called something other than @samp{show w} and
2859 @samp{show c}; they could even be mouse-clicks or menu items---whatever
2862 You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
2863 school, if any, to sign a ``copyright disclaimer'' for the program, if
2864 necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
2867 Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
2868 `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.

2874 This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
2875 proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may
2876 consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
2877 library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Library General
2878 Public License instead of this License.
