-= Facets Change Log
-
-== 1.0.2
-* Added _why's Array modulo.
-
-== 1.0.0
-* Sped up string#similarity.
-* By popular protest deprecated usage of "AClass.use Facets, :amethod".
-* Created nicer layout of facets/support, /group, /english (one day /method).
-* Odd sets of facets have been move to facets/group/, eg. facets/group/inflect.
-* All is now well preped for a Rolls release shoud that come about.
-
-== v0.10.30  Halloween
-* Change OrderedHash (ohash.rb) to Dictionary (dictionary.rb).
-* Change BlankSlate (blankslate.rb) to BasicObject (basicobject.rb).
-* Old versions of the above should still work, but throw warnings
-  and will stop working come next version.
-* 1.rb has been renamed to one.rb (I know, two more characters,
-  but you can do it! ;)
-* Methods enumerable/op_mod (%) and enumerable/eF are deprecated.
-  Use #every or #ew instead.
-
-== v0.10.11  Palapable
-* Merged Mega into Facets. I put the old Mega ChangeLog at
-  the bottom of this document.
-* This represents the One-Point-Oh realease (albeit RC1) of
-  Facets, but from now on I'll be using date versioning
-  --if you look at the versions below you may understand why.
-  The versioning sequence has no real rationality.
-  Instead I will use this simple Rational Versioning Policy:
-  * If YYYY-MM-DD it's a development release.
-  * If YYYY-MM it's an official release.
-  * If just YYYY it's hella stable.
-  One might argue this is not as robust as a compatability
-  significant point-based versioning system, but I'd say that's
-  all well and good in theory, now give me something that actually
-  works in practice.
-
-== v0.9.5  Rebirth
-* Rebirth of Facets! As cool as the name Nano is, it became clear
-  that most people are drawn toward the name Facets. So we are
-  reverting back. Nonetheless Nano will remain a viable alias for
-  Facets.
-* Must now use <code>require 'facets'</code> prior to using
-  other Facets. This does two things. First it loads the 
-  base methods, which ensures that all programs have them 
-  readibly available when using Facets. Secondly it supplements
-  #require to handle aliases. In essence, require 'facet/...',
-  require 'facets/...' and require 'nano/...' all point to the
-  same place(s). (NOTE This is a precursor to a more universal
-  system that will handle aliasing automatically.)
-* kernel/require_esc has been removed. #require_nano will be also
-  in the next release. These will no longer be needed thanks to 
-  the aliasing system.
-
-== v0.9.2  Littles
-* Added string/starts_with? and string/ends_with?
-* Fixed module/memoize to cache on a per class/module bases.
-* Added module/is as an alias for /include.
-* Added module/shadow_method and shadow_all.
-* Renamed module/superup (which was module/supers) to module/as. And defined a new
-  method called /superior which is like /super but skips to a sepecified ancestor.
-* Renamed module/super_send to module/send_as.
-
-== v0.9.1  Wraps
-* Added module/nesting (not to be confused with the class method Module::nesting).
-* Thanks goes to Gavien Kistner for new string/word_wrap methods 
-  (with additioanl thanks to Dyane Borderson for his suggestions).
-* Added hash/each_with_key and each_with_index, as well as array/each_with_key;
-  increasing polymorphism between the two classes.
-* Moved array/each_pair to enumerable/each_pair and changed how it worked to 
-  what one might expect.
-
-== v0.9.0  NotUorI
-* Deprecated object#special_class, which was a method for (class<<self;self;end).
-  Already have too many aliases for this, and though the name is fitting, the simpler
-  method #own is better (alternative: #singleton).
-* Fixed enumerable/uniq_by file which was misnamed 'unique_by.rb'.
-* BIG CHANGE! Got rid of URI encoding on file names and sub'd a converson table
-  of english readable names. Thanks Jeff Wood, Florain Gross, Dav Burt,
-  Gavin Kistner, James Edward Gray II, Brian Schröder, Mauricio Fernández,
-  David A. Black, Gavin Sinclair, Nikolai Weibull and Christian Neukirchen.
-
-== v0.8.3  UorI
-* Added kernel/uri and kernel/unuri
-* (Good idea?) removed methods module/sattr, sattr_reader, &c. Instead created object/meta
-  in which attr, attr_reader, &c. are made public. So, sattr -> meta.attr.
-* Added array/unzip
-* Added logger/format and logger/format_message (stub).
-* Added string/dequote.
-* Class method file names now begin with '::' to separate them from instance methods.
-
-== v0.8.2  Nano Revolution
-* Name Change! What was Ruby Facets is now Nano Methods!
-* New minor version as there has been a change of plans with the integration of what was Carats.
-  The classes and modules have been reseperated into their own project called Mega Modules.
-* Modified the #firstxxx/#lastxxx methods to be more congruent and comprehensible.
-* Renamed object/supers to object/superup. Better!
-* Got rid ot symbol/gen. Use object/generate_method_name or  module#generate_instance_method_name
-  instead ( Is that the longest non-foo method name ever? :)
-* The file 1st.rb has moved to object/method. This modifies #method to persist the returned
-  Method object. The original non-persitent version of #method is aliased to #original_method.
-  (This arrangement is not set in stone though, and is still be considered.)
-* Added module/clone_using, module/clone_ranaming and module/clone_removing.
-* Added module/integrate (I love this one!)
-* Added many new enumerable methods: #filter_map, #compact_map, #commonality, #frequency,
-  #probability and #find_collisions.
-* Moved some methods from array to enumerable: #each_permutation, #each_combination, 
-  #each_unique_pair and the class method ::combinations.
-* Added string/bytes per ruby-dev summary 26385-26467.
-* Moved #cattr_reader, #cattr_writer and #cattr_accessor from Class to Module.
-* Renamed numeric/octet_units to numeric/bytes_to_s and added a #bits_to_s as well.
-* Added class/descendants (alias subclasses) and class/remove_descendents, as well as
-  object/descendents_of and object/remove_descendents_of.
-* Added methods to comparable: #cap, #clip. There are also #at_least and
-  #at_most, although FYI #cap and #clip handle the same functionality.
-* Removed string/table_name and string/class_name (they were too Rails specific).
-  Note: A new module has been added to Mega Modules, called orm-inflect.rb. It contains numerous
-  methods for doing this sort of thing.
-* Added numeric/ceil_multiple (not sure about name though, perhaps a better name like "ceil_to"?).
-* Added string/soundex for calculating the soundex code of a word/name.
-* Added io/expect. I thought Ruby already had this but can't find it, so here it is for now.
-* Placed Florian's binding-of-caller.rb in binding/of_caller. Makes more sense there.
-* Fixed bug with Continuation::create (it wasn't defined as a class method and should have been).
-* Fixed bug with string/capitalized? which wasn't always giving the correct result.
-
-== v0.7.2  George II
-* Added a class method dir/recurse which allows one to loop through a dir and all its
-  subdirs, etc. It also has an alias #ls_r. Thanks goes to George Maschovitis for this.
-* Changed array/permute to array/each_permutation.
-
-== v0.7.1  Quick George
-* Added facet.rb, although expiremental it makes it possible to use atomic methods without
-  specificaly requiring them. It uses Object#method_missing to require them as needed.
-* Improved on "molecules", i.e. files that require numerous related atoms in a single go.
-  These will see a great deal of continued improvement in the future.
-
-== v0.7.0  Georgian Transform
-* All methods with names containing non-alphanumeric characters now have facet
-  files without those special characters. This removes some incompatibilites with 
-  certain systems (including Windows). All such symbols have been replaced with
-  CGI escape sequences, for instance 'in?.rb' becomes 'in%3F.rb'. To avoid having
-  to use these "ugly" names, a new method has been added, kernel/require_facet.
-* Methods that were grouped together in the same file have been separated 
-  into their own files. Pure Atomicity has been achieved!
-* The method array/put has been dropped in favor of array/top (as a better alias for #unshift).
-* Methods #matchdata/post_match_from and #matchdata/pre_match_from have deprecated
-  in favor of more generalized methods that serves the same purposes,
-  matchdata/matchtree and matchdata/matchset.
-* Added module/include_as.
-* Added array/permute.
-
-== v0.6.3  Gemstone
-* Gem is now avaliable!
-* Added kernel/require_all which allows one to require a pattern of files,
-  making it easy to require every file in a directory.
-* Added hash/traverse and hash/traverse!, which takes a block and iterates over
-  each key-value pair descending into subhash values and applying the block.
-  (Thanks goes to Ara T. Howard and robert for their help.)
-* Added hash/collect. This uses enumerable/graph so that
-  hash/collect will return a hash rather then an array.
-* Added numeric/before and numeric/after in place of #ago and #since
-  and aliased #ago and #since to them, per the suggestions of
-  Francis Hwang.
-* Added "poor man's profiler", time/elapse. (Thanks goes to Hal Fulton).
-* Changed enumerable/build_hash to enumerable/graph. The method #build_hash
-  has been aliased to #graph for the time being for backward compatability.
-* Added array/last_index. (Thanks goes to Jabari)
-
-== v0.6.2  Refinement I
-* Added kernel/resc as a shortcut for Regexp.escape.
-* Renamed hash/keys_to_string to hash/key_to_s and  
-  hash/keys_to_symbol to hash/keys_to_sym to be more consistant
-  with other methods and what these methods specifically do.
-  The old names have been deprecated.
-* Added hash/has_keys?, which allows for checking mutliple keys at once.
-  Also includes #has_only_keys?
-* Added Rail's Time and Byte modules for Numeric with
-  numeric/times.rb and numeric/bytes.rb (I've been informed that
-  thanks go to Richard Kilmer for this. Thanks!)
-* Added numeric/octet_unit which utilizes numeric/bytes.
-  (The name of this method may change in the future though.)
-* Added enumerable/uniq_by.
-* Added module/abstract.
-* Added module/redirect which is similar to alias, but does not
-  copy the method, but rather wraps it. It also takes a hash so
-  multiple methods can be redirected all at once.
-* Added string/shatter which is similar to split but includes
-  the matched portions of text.
-
-== v0.6.1  Florian's Mixes
-* Updated the current set of mix files which were still from 
-  version 0.5.0. (2004-12-31)
-
-== v0.6.0  Florian's Onslaught
-* Major revisions made by Florian's onslaught. (2004-12-28) 
-* First general public release.
-
-== v0.5.0  Fit for First
-* This is the beginning of offical releases. (2004-12-23)
-* Now called Facets.
-* Changed layout to be completely atomic! (2004-10-30)
-
-== v0.4.0  Raspberry
-* Scoured the Ruby world for useful additions.
-* Changed name again from A.B.C. to Raspberry.
-  I can't seem to settle on a name. Even the new 
-  subsections have changed five times. (2004-08-08)
-
-== v0.3.0  ABC
-* Reorganinzed all of this together in a nice neat way.
-* Changed name of library from Succ to A.B.C. 
-  which stands for All Base Common. (2004-02-02)
-
-== v0.2.0  Succ
-* A number of new methods added.
-* Renamed it Succ for "successor". (2003-05-31)
-
-== v0.1.0  TomsLib
-* Tomslib's just a few useful methods. (2002-07-01)
-
-
-== Old Mega/Carats ChangeLog
-
-== v0.4.0
-* Adjusted Tuple to use Tuple::[*args] instead of ::new, which now takes
-  a single argument instead, either an Array or a String which it splits.
-* Removed services.rb unitl in gets fixed and a better name.
-
-== v0.3.3
-* Added inheritable.rb, a lib for creating class vars inherit from ancestors
-* Addes annotations.rb, a lightweight metadata system good for annotating
-  methods esspecially. It is built on top of inheritable.rb.
-
-== 0.3.2
-* Added services.rb, a lib for managing methods as first class objects
-* Fixed/cleaned-up orm_supprt.rb
-
-== 0.3.1
-* Aliased #autoload_classes with #autorequire.
-* Added #strfbits and #strfbytes to binary_multiplers.rb.
-
-== 0.3.0
-* Name change to Mega Modules!
-* Added a few important files: multipliers.rb, binary_multipliers.rb,
-  time_in_english.rb and orm_inlectors.rb.
-* Each one of these is a "Methods Module", i.e. They are a collection of
-  closely related methods that modify one or more core classes/modules.
-  Individually these methods could have very well ended up in Nano Methods,
-  but given there quantity and interrelation they were more suitable to a
-  module, and thus placed here.
-
-== 0.2.0
-* Initial public release
-
-== 0.1.0
-* Early Development as Ruby Carats

-                   GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
-                     Version 2, June 1991
-
- Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
-    59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA  02111-1307  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.
-  
-    12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
-  WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
-  REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
-  INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
-  OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
-  TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
-  YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
-  PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
-  POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
-  
-                      END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
-  
-              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., 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA  02111-1307  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.
