+# Avrocadabra
+
+Raw Avro datums for CRuby 4.0. Rust `apache-avro` + Magnus.
+
+```ruby
+require "avrocadabra"
+
+schema = Avrocadabra::Schema.new({
+  type: "record", name: "Sample",
+  fields: [{ name: "id", type: "long" }, { name: "label", type: "string" }]
+})
+bytes = schema.encode({ id: 42, label: "温度" })
+schema.decode(bytes) # => {"id" => 42, "label" => "温度"}
+```
+
+## Schemas
+
+Accepts JSON, a Hash, or a union Array. Primitive JSON needs quotes: `Schema.new('"long"')`. Reuse schemas; pass external named types in `references: [json_or_hash, ...]`.
+
+```ruby
+writer = Avrocadabra::Schema.new({ type: "record", name: "Sample",
+  fields: [{ name: "id", type: "int" }] })
+reader = Avrocadabra::Schema.new({ type: "record", name: "Sample",
+  fields: [{ name: "id", type: "long" }, { name: "label", type: "string", default: "" }] })
+writer.decode(writer.encode({ id: 42 }), reader_schema: reader)
+# => {"id" => 42, "label" => ""}
+```
+
+The receiver supplies the writer schema. Resolution supports aliases, defaults, enums, fixed, recursive names, unions and Avro promotions. Each writer caches up to eight resolution plans.
+
+- Fields use string keys, then symbols, preserving `false` and `nil`. Hash defaults, default procs and `key?`/`[]` overrides apply. Missing nullable fields become `nil`; other missing fields raise. Extra fields are ignored.
+- Schema defaults fill reader fields absent from the writer schema.
+- Map keys must be strings. Decoded records/maps have string keys in wire order; encoding preserves Hash order. Inputs stay untouched unless their own callbacks mutate them.
+- Decode consumes one datum from a string or `StringIO`, leaving trailing bytes unread. Failed reads preserve the stream position.
+
+## Types
+
+| Avro | Ruby |
+| --- | --- |
+| null / boolean | `nil` / `true`, `false` |
+| int / long | Signed 32-bit / 64-bit `Integer` |
+| float / double | `Float`; encoding also accepts `Integer` and `BigDecimal` |
+| string | UTF-8 `String`; encoding transcodes text |
+| enum | Declared symbol as a `String`; no transcoding |
+| bytes / fixed | `String`; decoded as `Encoding::BINARY` |
+| array / map / record or error | `Array` / `Hash` / `Hash` |
+| decimal, bytes or fixed | `BigDecimal`; encoding also accepts `Integer` and `Float` |
+| big-decimal, bytes | `BigDecimal` with per-value scale; encoding also accepts `Integer` and `Float` |
+| date | `Date`; encoding accepts `DateTime` or numeric days since 1970-01-01 |
+| time-millis / micros | Integer ticks since midnight, within one day |
+| timestamp-millis / micros / nanos | UTC `Time`; encoding accepts `Time`, `Date`, `DateTime` or numeric ticks |
+| local-timestamp-millis / micros / nanos | Integer ticks since local 1970-01-01 |
+| uuid, string or fixed16 | Canonical lowercase, hyphenated UUID string |
+| duration, fixed12 | `Avrocadabra::Duration.new(months:, days:, milliseconds:)`; uint32 components |
+
+- Decimals use `to_d`; use `BigDecimal` for exact input. Non-finite values, excess scale and overflow raise. Resolution requires matching precision and scale.
+- Big-decimal preserves numeric value; Ruby normalizes insignificant zeros. Exponents outside Ruby BigDecimal's finite range raise.
+- Numeric date/timestamp inputs use `to_i`; timestamps discard sub-unit fractions. Dates use the proleptic Gregorian calendar.
+- Float/double use IEEE-754 rounding; overflow becomes signed infinity, matching Ruby Avro.
+
+Convert custom objects before encoding. Collection `each` and text `encode` overrides apply; iterators must yield synchronously in the calling thread/fiber.
+
+For registries, use the [AvroTurf integration](docs/avro_turf.md): add the gem, then replace `AvroTurf::Messaging.new` with `Avrocadabra::AvroTurf::Messaging.new`.
+
+Unions choose the first accepting branch in schema order. Override with a branch index, primitive name, or full named type:
+
+```ruby
+schema = Avrocadabra::Schema.new(["int", "long"])
+bytes = schema.encode(Avrocadabra::Union.new("long", 42))
+schema.decode(bytes) # => 42
+schema.decode(bytes, tagged_unions: true) # => Avrocadabra::Union.new(1, 42)
+```
+
+Decode unwraps unions; `tagged_unions: true` retains branch indices. Unknown logical annotations and invalid decimal annotations use the physical type. UUID-to-string resolution returns canonical text.
+
+Ruby Avro resolution quirks are preserved:
+
+- Defaults retain JSON float precision and UTF-8 strings; extra record keys are ignored.
+- Nested defaults use truthiness fallback: `false` without its own field default becomes `:no_default`.
+- Integer-to-floating promotions retain `Integer`; string/bytes promotions retain writer encoding.
+- An unmatched enum symbol survives if the reader has no default.
+
+## Bounds
+
+`SchemaError`, `EncodeError`, `DecodeError` inherit from `Avrocadabra::Error`; `ResolutionError` inherits from `DecodeError`. Errors include paths/byte offsets where available. Validation is always on.
+
+| Constructor option | Default | Maximum |
+| --- | ---: | ---: |
+| `max_depth` | 64 | 128 |
+| `max_bytes` | 16 MiB | 64 MiB |
+| `max_items` | 1,000,000 | 1,000,000 |
+
+Limits must be positive:
+
+- Items count values, containers, nulls, expanded defaults and union-search visits.
+- Union wrappers and named references add no datum depth.
+- Bytes bound the consumed datum and aggregate content, including copied names. They do not bound RSS.
+- Resolution applies the smaller writer/reader limits before copying or decoding, including discarded fields.
+- Schema JSON: 1 MiB total, 64 levels, 65,536 nodes. Fixed-scale decimals: 4,096 digits. Big-decimal coefficients use the byte limit; exponents never expand into zero-filled strings.
+
+Ruby GC and `ObjectSpace.memsize_of` account for retained native schemas and resolution plans. Ruby allocation counts exclude native allocations.
+
+## Concurrency
+
+Prepared schemas are frozen and Ractor-shareable. Threads, Ractors and synchronous fibers can reuse them through GC compaction and after `fork`. Load the gem before starting Ractors; keep inputs stable during calls.
+
+```ruby
+schema = Avrocadabra::Schema.new('"long"')
+Ractor.new(schema) { |codec| codec.decode(codec.encode(42)) }.value # => 42
+```
+
+`encode` and `decode` hold the GVL by default. `release_gvl: true` releases it for owned Rust work; Ruby conversions keep it. See [transition costs](benchmark/README.md).
+
+## Build
+
+Binary gems need no compiler. Source builds need Rust 1.99+, Cargo, a C toolchain, libclang and Ruby headers. Runtime dependencies: `json`, `bigdecimal`, `date`, `zeitwerk`; source builds add `rb_sys`. The optional integration needs `avro` and `avro_turf`.
+
+```sh
+bundle install
+COVERAGE=true bundle exec rake
+BUNDLE_WITH=mutation bundle install
+BUNDLE_WITH=mutation bundle exec rake mutation
+bundle exec ruby benchmark/codec.rb
+bundle exec rake build package:verify
+```
+
+CI gates: Ruby line/branch coverage ≥95%, Mutineer score 100%. Reports: HTML/LCOV artifacts + Codecov. Rust has unit, interoperability and fuzz tests.
+
+`rake build` builds source + seven native gems locally on macOS with the running Ruby release. `package:verify` installs and tests source/current-platform gems outside the checkout. Build tools, targets and manual publishing: [releases](docs/releasing.md).

+# AvroTurf
+
+Two changes:
+
+```ruby
+gem "avrocadabra"
+```
+
+```ruby
+messaging = Avrocadabra::AvroTurf::Messaging.new(**existing_options)
+```
+
+Keep `avro_turf` and existing encode/decode calls. Bundler loads Avrocadabra; Zeitwerk loads the integration on constant access. Either require order works. No initializer or flags.
+
+AvroTurf keeps framing, registry access, authentication, registration, subjects, IDs, versions and schema caches. The integration prepends datum routing, bounded validation and Ractor support. Stock `AvroTurf::Messaging` keeps Ruby codecs; standalone Avrocadabra needs no AvroTurf.
+
+```ruby
+payload = messaging.encode({ "id" => 42, "reading" => BigDecimal("12.34") }, schema_name: "Sample")
+message = messaging.decode(payload)
+evolved = messaging.decode_message(payload, schema_name: "CurrentSample")
+evolved.message
+evolved.schema_id
+evolved.writer_schema
+evolved.reader_schema
+```
+
+The schema ID selects the writer; decode's `schema_name:` selects the reader. Metadata retains Ruby Avro schema objects.
+
+## Contract
+
+- Same native reader/writer as `Avrocadabra::Schema`.
+- Field lookup: string keys, then symbols. Hash defaults, default procs and `key?`/`[]` overrides apply. Missing nullable fields become `nil`; missing required fields raise, even with writer defaults.
+- Records include `error` schemas and recursion. Exact field names beat aliases; later writer matches overwrite earlier ones.
+- Unions select the first valid branch. Ruby Avro adapters preserve logical mappings and nested exceptions. Decimal Floats work; excess scale raises `RangeError`.
+- `each` and text `encode` overrides apply; enums use the original value for symbol lookup. Iterators must yield synchronously in the calling thread/fiber; retained encoding blocks expire after return.
+- Reader additions require explicit defaults. Ruby Avro materializes them, including its float, UTF-8 and nested-default quirks. Extra default keys are ignored.
+- Writer-union resolution preserves repeated adapter calls. Earlier adapters run before later resolution errors.
+- UUID case stays unchanged. Unsupported Ruby Avro annotations retain physical values: fixed decimals, big-decimal and duration decode as strings. Standalone schemas have [additional mappings](../README.md#types).
+- Integer-to-floating promotions retain `Integer`; string/bytes promotions retain writer encoding. Maps retain insertion order.
+- Decode consumes one datum, leaving trailing bytes unread. Failed native reads preserve the cursor, including adapter failures.
+- Bounds: 16 MiB, 64 levels, 1,000,000 value/search nodes. Rejected union branches consume the work budget. `validate: true` retains Ruby Avro's rules and extra-field checks, with bounded recursive validation.
+
+Registry/framing errors stay in AvroTurf. Codec errors use Ruby Avro classes or `EOFError`; messages, malformed-input rejection and failure cursor behavior may differ. Bounds reject some inputs stock Avro accepts. Native failures never retry through Ruby.
+
+## Reuse
+
+Each client caches 128 prepared schemas; each writer caches eight reader plans. Schema mutation invalidates cached codecs, including edits to fields, symbols and defaults. Do not mutate schemas during a call.
+
+Cache access uses a mutex; codec work runs outside it. Routing is fiber-local and restored after nested calls/errors. Threads, interleaved fibers, GC compaction and fork reuse are tested. Registry clients retain their own thread/fork constraints.
+
+Ruby conversion and Messaging retain the calling Ractor's GVL. Create one client per Ractor; standalone prepared schemas are shareable.
+
+```ruby
+Ractor.new(existing_options, payload) do |options, bytes|
+  Avrocadabra::AvroTurf::Messaging.new(**options).decode(bytes)
+end.value
+```
+
+Load dependencies before workers. Create registry clients/loggers inside their Ractor. Worker Avro/Excon tables use load-time snapshots; later main-Ractor adapter registrations stay local. Configure Excon inside the worker or pass constructor options. Workers parse schemas with Ruby `JSON`; main-Ractor MultiJson settings stay unchanged.
+
+Tested: AvroTurf 1.20.2, Ruby Avro 1.12.2. Rollback: `AvroTurf::Messaging.new`. [Benchmarks](../benchmark/README.md#messaging).

+		    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
+		       Version 2, June 1991
+
+ Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
+     51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA  02110-1301  USA
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+
+			    Preamble
+
+  The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
+freedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public
+License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
+software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This
+General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
+Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
+using it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
+the GNU Library General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to
+your programs, too.
+
+  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
+price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
+have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
+this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
+if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
+in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
+
+  To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
+anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
+These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
+distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
+
+  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
+gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
+you have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
+source code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their
+rights.
+
+  We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
+(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
+distribute and/or modify the software.
+
+  Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
+that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
+software.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
+want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
+that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
+authors' reputations.
+
+  Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
+patents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
+program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
+program proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
+patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
+
+  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
+modification follow.
+
+		    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
+   TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
+
+  0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
+a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
+under the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program", below,
+refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
+means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
+that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
+either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
+language.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
+the term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you".
+
+Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
+covered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of
+running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
+is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
+Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
+Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
+
+  1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
+source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
+conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
+copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
+notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
+and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
+along with the Program.
+
+You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
+you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
+
+  2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
+of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
+distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
+above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
+
+    a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
+    stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
+
+    b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
+    whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
+    part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
+    parties under the terms of this License.
+
+    c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
+    when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
+    interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
+    announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
+    notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
+    a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
+    these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
+    License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
+    does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
+    the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
+
+These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
+identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
+and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
+themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
+sections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you
+distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
+on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
+this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
+entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
+
+Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
+your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
+exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
+collective works based on the Program.
+
+In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
+with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
+a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
+the scope of this License.
+
+  3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
+under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
+Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
+
+    a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
+    source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
+    1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
+
+    b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
+    years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
+    cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
+    machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
+    distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
+    customarily used for software interchange; or,
+
+    c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
+    to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is
+    allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
+    received the program in object code or executable form with such
+    an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
+
+The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
+making modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source
+code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
+associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
+control compilation and installation of the executable.  However, as a
+special exception, the source code distributed need not include
+anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
+form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
+operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
+itself accompanies the executable.
+
+If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
+access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
+access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
+distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
+compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
+
+  4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
+except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
+otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
+void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
+However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
+this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
+parties remain in full compliance.
+
+  5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
+signed it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
+distribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions are
+prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by
+modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
+Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
+all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
+the Program or works based on it.
+
+  6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
+Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
+original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
+these terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further
+restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
+You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
+this License.
+
+  7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
+infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
+conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
+otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
+excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot
+distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
+License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
+may not distribute the Program at all.  For example, if a patent
+license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
+all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
+the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
+refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
+
+If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
+any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
+apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
+circumstances.
+
+It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
+patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
+such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
+integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
+implemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
+generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
+through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
+system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
+to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
+impose that choice.
+
+This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
+be a consequence of the rest of this License.
+
+  8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
+certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
+original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
+may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
+those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
+countries not thus excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates
+the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
+
+  9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
+of the General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
+be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
+address new problems or concerns.
+
+Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program
+specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
+later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
+either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
+Software Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of
+this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
+Foundation.
+
+  10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
+programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
+to ask for permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free
+Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
+make exceptions for this.  Our decision will be guided by the two goals
+of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
+of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
+
+			    NO WARRANTY
+
+  11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
+FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN
+OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
+PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
+OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
+MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS
+TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE
+PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
+REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
+

+
+	    How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
+
+  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
+possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
+free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
+
+  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
+to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
+convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
+the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
+
+    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
+    Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
+
+    This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
+    it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
+    the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
+    (at your option) any later version.
+
+    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
+    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
+    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
+    GNU General Public License for more details.
+
+    You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
+    along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
+    Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA  02110-1301  USA
+
+
+Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
+
+If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
+when it starts in an interactive mode:
+
+    Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year  name of author
+    Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
+    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
+    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
+
+The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
+parts of the General Public License.  Of course, the commands you use may
+be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
+mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
+
+You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
+school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
+necessary.  Here is a sample; alter the names:
+
+  Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
+  `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.

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