PCRE LICENCE
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
PCRE is a library of functions to support regular expressions whose syntax
|
|
and semantics are as close as possible to those of the Perl 5 language.

2. The origin of this software must not be misrepresented, either by

explicit claim or by omission. In practice, this means that if you use

PCRE in software that you distribute to others, commercially or
|
|
otherwise, you must put a sentence like this
|
|
|
|
Regular expression support is provided by the PCRE library package,
|
|
which is open source software, written by Philip Hazel, and copyright
|
|
by the University of Cambridge, England.

|
|
somewhere reasonably visible in your documentation and in any relevant
|
|
files or online help data or similar. A reference to the ftp site for
|
|
the source, that is, to
|
|
|
|
ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/programming/pcre/
|
|
|
|
should also be given in the documentation. However, this condition is not
|
|
intended to apply to whole chains of software. If package A includes PCRE,
|
|
it must acknowledge it, but if package B is software that includes package
|
|
A, the condition is not imposed on package B (unless it uses PCRE
|
|
independently).
|
|
|
|
3. Altered versions must be plainly marked as such, and must not be
|
|
misrepresented as being the original software.
|

|
|
4. If PCRE is embedded in any software that is released under the GNU
|
|
General Purpose Licence (GPL), or Lesser General Purpose Licence (LGPL),
|
|
then the terms of that licence shall supersede any condition above with
|
|
which it is incompatible.
|
|
|
|
The documentation for PCRE, supplied in the "doc" directory, is distributed
|
|
under the same terms as the software itself.
