+License: Artistic
+ 1. License coverage
+ .
+ Note that this license only covers the script and not any supporting material
+ such as this website or the documentation. You may not re-produce or copy the
+ website or other material presented here without explicit written permission
+ from the author.
+ .
+ 2. License (Artistic)
+ .
+  • Preamble
+    The intent of this document is to state the conditions under which a
+    Package may be copied, such that the Copyright Holder maintains some
+    semblance of artistic control over the development of the package, while
+    giving the users of the package the right to use and distribute the Package
+    in a more-or-less customary fashion, plus the right to make reasonable
+    modifications.
+ .
+  • Definitions:
+    "Package" refers to the collection of files distributed by the Copyright
+    Holder, and derivatives of that collection of files created through textual
+    modification.
+ .
+    "Standard Version" refers to such a Package if it has not been modified, or
+    has been modified in accordance with the wishes of the Copyright Holder.
+ .
+    "Copyright Holder" is whoever is named in the copyright or copyrights for
+    the package.
+ .
+    "You" is you, if you're thinking about copying or distributing this
+    Package.
+ .
+    "Reasonable copying fee" is whatever you can justify on the basis of media
+    cost, duplication charges, time of people involved, and so on. (You will
+    not be required to justify it to the Copyright Holder, but only to the
+    computing community at large as a market that must bear the fee.)
+ .
+    "Freely Available" means that no fee is charged for the item itself, though
+    there may be fees involved in handling the item. It also means that
+    recipients of the item may redistribute it under the same conditions they
+    received it.
+ .
+ 1. You may make and give away verbatim copies of the source form of the
+    Standard Version of this Package without restriction, provided that you
+    duplicate all of the original copyright notices and associated disclaimers.
+ 2. You may apply bug fixes, portability fixes and other modifications derived
+    from the Public Domain or from the Copyright Holder. A Package modified in
+    such a way shall still be considered the Standard Version.
+ 3. You may otherwise modify your copy of this Package in any way, provided
+    that you insert a prominent notice in each changed file stating how and
+    when you changed that file, and provided that you do at least ONE of the
+    following:
+     1. place your modifications in the Public Domain or otherwise make them
+        Freely Available, such as by posting said modifications to Usenet or an
+        equivalent medium, or placing the modifications on a major archive site
+        such as ftp.uu.net, or by allowing the Copyright Holder to include your
+        modifications in the Standard Version of the Package.
+     2. use the modified Package only within your corporation or organization.
+     3. rename any non-standard executables so the names do not conflict with
+        standard executables, which must also be provided, and provide a
+        separate manual page for each non-standard executable that clearly
+        documents how it differs from the Standard Version.
+     4. make other distribution arrangements with the Copyright Holder.
+ 4. You may distribute the programs of this Package in object code or
+    executable form, provided that you do at least ONE of the following:
+     1. distribute a Standard Version of the executables and library files,
+        together with instructions (in the manual page or equivalent) on where
+        to get the Standard Version.
+     2. accompany the distribution with the machine-readable source of the
+        Package with your modifications.
+     3. accompany any non-standard executables with their corresponding
+        Standard Version executables, giving the non-standard executables
+        non-standard names, and clearly documenting the differences in manual
+        pages (or equivalent), together with instructions on where to get the
+        Standard Version.
+     4. make other distribution arrangements with the Copyright Holder.
+ 5. You may charge a reasonable copying fee for any distribution of this
+    Package. You may charge any fee you choose for support of this Package. You
+    may not charge a fee for this Package itself. However, you may distribute
+    this Package in aggregate with other (possibly commercial) programs as part
+    of a larger (possibly commercial) software distribution provided that you
+    do not advertise this Package as a product of your own.
+ 6. The scripts and library files supplied as input to or produced as output
+    from the programs of this Package do not automatically fall under the
+    copyright of this Package, but belong to whomever generated them, and may
+    be sold commercially, and may be aggregated with this Package.
+ 7. C or perl subroutines supplied by you and linked into this Package shall
+    not be considered part of this Package.
+ 8. The name of the Copyright Holder may not be used to endorse or promote
+    products derived from this software without specific prior written
+    permission.
+ 9. THIS PACKAGE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND WITHOUT ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED
+    WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
+    MERCHANTIBILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
