+1 Overview
+**********
+
+`gzip' reduces the size of the named files using Lempel-Ziv coding
+(LZ77). Whenever possible, each file is replaced by one with the
+extension `.gz', while keeping the same ownership modes, access and
+modification times. (The default extension is `-gz' for VMS, `z' for
+MSDOS, OS/2 FAT and Atari.) If no files are specified or if a file
+name is "-", the standard input is compressed to the standard output.
+`gzip' will only attempt to compress regular files. In particular, it
+will ignore symbolic links.
+
+ If the new file name is too long for its file system, `gzip'
+truncates it. `gzip' attempts to truncate only the parts of the file
+name longer than 3 characters. (A part is delimited by dots.) If the
+name consists of small parts only, the longest parts are truncated.
+For example, if file names are limited to 14 characters, gzip.msdos.exe
+is compressed to gzi.msd.exe.gz. Names are not truncated on systems
+which do not have a limit on file name length.
+
+ By default, `gzip' keeps the original file name and timestamp in the
+compressed file. These are used when decompressing the file with the
+`-N' option. This is useful when the compressed file name was truncated
+or when the time stamp was not preserved after a file transfer.
+However, due to limitations in the current `gzip' file format,
+fractional seconds are discarded. Also, time stamps must fall within
+the range 1970-01-01 00:00:00 through 2106-02-07 06:28:15 UTC, and
+hosts whose operating systems use 32-bit time stamps are further
+restricted to time stamps no later than 2038-01-19 03:14:07 UTC. The
+upper bounds assume the typical case where leap seconds are ignored.
+
+ Compressed files can be restored to their original form using `gzip
+-d' or `gunzip' or `zcat'. If the original name saved in the
+compressed file is not suitable for its file system, a new name is
+constructed from the original one to make it legal.
+
+ `gunzip' takes a list of files on its command line and replaces each
+file whose name ends with `.gz', `.z', `.Z', `-gz', `-z' or `_z' and
+which begins with the correct magic number with an uncompressed file
+without the original extension. `gunzip' also recognizes the special
+extensions `.tgz' and `.taz' as shorthands for `.tar.gz' and `.tar.Z'
+respectively. When compressing, `gzip' uses the `.tgz' extension if
+necessary instead of truncating a file with a `.tar' extension.
+
+ `gunzip' can currently decompress files created by `gzip', `zip',
+`compress' or `pack'. The detection of the input format is automatic.
+When using the first two formats, `gunzip' checks a 32 bit CRC (cyclic
+redundancy check). For `pack', `gunzip' checks the uncompressed length.
+The `compress' format was not designed to allow consistency checks.
+However `gunzip' is sometimes able to detect a bad `.Z' file. If you
+get an error when uncompressing a `.Z' file, do not assume that the
+`.Z' file is correct simply because the standard `uncompress' does not
+complain. This generally means that the standard `uncompress' does not
+check its input, and happily generates garbage output. The SCO
+`compress -H' format (`lzh' compression method) does not include a CRC
+but also allows some consistency checks.
+
+ Files created by `zip' can be uncompressed by `gzip' only if they
+have a single member compressed with the 'deflation' method. This
+feature is only intended to help conversion of `tar.zip' files to the
+`tar.gz' format. To extract a `zip' file with a single member, use a
+command like `gunzip <foo.zip' or `gunzip -S .zip foo.zip'. To extract
+`zip' files with several members, use `unzip' instead of `gunzip'.
+
+ `zcat' is identical to `gunzip -c'. `zcat' uncompresses either a
+list of files on the command line or its standard input and writes the
+uncompressed data on standard output. `zcat' will uncompress files
+that have the correct magic number whether they have a `.gz' suffix or
+not.
+
+ `gzip' uses the Lempel-Ziv algorithm used in `zip' and PKZIP. The
+amount of compression obtained depends on the size of the input and the
+distribution of common substrings. Typically, text such as source code
+or English is reduced by 60-70%. Compression is generally much better
+than that achieved by LZW (as used in `compress'), Huffman coding (as
+used in `pack'), or adaptive Huffman coding (`compact').
+
+ Compression is always performed, even if the compressed file is
+slightly larger than the original. The worst case expansion is a few
+bytes for the `gzip' file header, plus 5 bytes every 32K block, or an
+expansion ratio of 0.015% for large files. Note that the actual number
+of used disk blocks almost never increases. `gzip' normally preserves
+the mode, ownership and time stamps of files when compressing or
+decompressing.
+
+ The `gzip' file format is specified in P. Deutsch, GZIP file format
+specification version 4.3, Internet RFC 1952
+(ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/rfc1952.txt) (May 1996). The `zip'
+deflation format is specified in P. Deutsch, DEFLATE Compressed Data
+Format Specification version 1.3, Internet RFC 1951
+(ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/rfc1951.txt) (May 1996).

+2 Sample Output
+***************
+
+Here are some realistic examples of running `gzip'.
+
+ This is the output of the command `gzip -h':
+
+ gzip VERSION-NUMBER
+ usage: gzip [-cdfhlLnNrtvV19] [-S suffix] [file ...]
+ -c --stdout write on standard output, keep original files unchanged
+ -d --decompress decompress

+ -n --no-name do not save or restore the original name and time stamp
+ -N --name save or restore the original name and time stamp
+ -q --quiet suppress all warnings
+ -r --recursive operate recursively on directories
+ -S .suf --suffix .suf use suffix .suf on compressed files
+ -t --test test compressed file integrity
+ -v --verbose verbose mode

+ -1 --fast compress faster
+ -9 --best compress better
+ file... files to (de)compress. If none given, use standard input.
+ Report bugs to <bug-gzip@gnu.org>.
+
+ This is the output of the command `gzip -v texinfo.tex':
+
+ texinfo.tex: 69.7% -- replaced with texinfo.tex.gz
+
+ The following command will find all `gzip' files in the current
+directory and subdirectories, and extract them in place without
+destroying the original:
+
+ find . -name '*.gz' -print | sed 's/^\(.*\)[.]gz$/gunzip < "&" > "\1"/' | sh

+
+3 Invoking `gzip'
+*****************
+
+The format for running the `gzip' program is:
+
+ gzip OPTION ...
+
+ `gzip' supports the following options:
+
+`--stdout'
+`--to-stdout'
+`-c'
+ Write output on standard output; keep original files unchanged.
+ If there are several input files, the output consists of a
+ sequence of independently compressed members. To obtain better
+ compression, concatenate all input files before compressing them.
+
+`--decompress'
+`--uncompress'
+`-d'
+ Decompress.
+
+`--force'
+`-f'
+ Force compression or decompression even if the file has multiple
+ links or the corresponding file already exists, or if the
+ compressed data is read from or written to a terminal. If the
+ input data is not in a format recognized by `gzip', and if the
+ option `--stdout' is also given, copy the input data without
+ change to the standard output: let `zcat' behave as `cat'. If `-f'
+ is not given, and when not running in the background, `gzip'
+ prompts to verify whether an existing file should be overwritten.
+
+`--help'
+`-h'
+ Print an informative help message describing the options then quit.
+
+`--list'
+`-l'
+ For each compressed file, list the following fields:
+
+ compressed size: size of the compressed file
+ uncompressed size: size of the uncompressed file
+ ratio: compression ratio (0.0% if unknown)
+ uncompressed_name: name of the uncompressed file
+
+ The uncompressed size is given as `-1' for files not in `gzip'
+ format, such as compressed `.Z' files. To get the uncompressed
+ size for such a file, you can use:
+
+ zcat file.Z | wc -c
+
+ In combination with the `--verbose' option, the following fields
+ are also displayed:
+
+ method: compression method (deflate,compress,lzh,pack)
+ crc: the 32-bit CRC of the uncompressed data
+ date & time: time stamp for the uncompressed file
+
+ The crc is given as ffffffff for a file not in gzip format.
+
+ With `--verbose', the size totals and compression ratio for all
+ files is also displayed, unless some sizes are unknown. With
+ `--quiet', the title and totals lines are not displayed.
+
+ The `gzip' format represents the input size modulo 2^32, so the
+ uncompressed size and compression ratio are listed incorrectly for
+ uncompressed files 4 GB and larger. To work around this problem,
+ you can use the following command to discover a large uncompressed
+ file's true size:
+
+ zcat file.gz | wc -c
+
+`--license'
+`-L'
+ Display the `gzip' license then quit.
+
+`--no-name'
+`-n'
+ When compressing, do not save the original file name and time
+ stamp by default. (The original name is always saved if the name
+ had to be truncated.) When decompressing, do not restore the
+ original file name if present (remove only the `gzip' suffix from
+ the compressed file name) and do not restore the original time
+ stamp if present (copy it from the compressed file). This option
+ is the default when decompressing.
+
+`--name'
+`-N'
+ When compressing, always save the original file name and time
+ stamp; this is the default. When decompressing, restore the
+ original file name and time stamp if present. This option is
+ useful on systems which have a limit on file name length or when
+ the time stamp has been lost after a file transfer.
+
+`--quiet'
+`-q'
+ Suppress all warning messages.
+
+`--recursive'
+`-r'
+ Travel the directory structure recursively. If any of the file
+ names specified on the command line are directories, `gzip' will
+ descend into the directory and compress all the files it finds
+ there (or decompress them in the case of `gunzip').
+
+`--suffix SUF'
+`-S SUF'
+ Use suffix `SUF' instead of `.gz'. Any suffix can be given, but
+ suffixes other than `.z' and `.gz' should be avoided to avoid
+ confusion when files are transferred to other systems. A null
+ suffix forces gunzip to try decompression on all given files
+ regardless of suffix, as in:
+
+ gunzip -S "" * (*.* for MSDOS)
+
+ Previous versions of gzip used the `.z' suffix. This was changed to
+ avoid a conflict with `pack'.
+
+`--test'
+`-t'
+ Test. Check the compressed file integrity.
+
+`--verbose'
+`-v'
+ Verbose. Display the name and percentage reduction for each file
+ compressed.
+
+`--version'
+`-V'
+ Version. Display the version number and compilation options, then
+ quit.
+
+`--fast'
+`--best'
+`-N'
+ Regulate the speed of compression using the specified digit N,
+ where `-1' or `--fast' indicates the fastest compression method
+ (less compression) and `--best' or `-9' indicates the slowest
+ compression method (optimal compression). The default compression
+ level is `-6' (that is, biased towards high compression at expense
+ of speed).

+
+4 Advanced usage
+****************
+
+Multiple compressed files can be concatenated. In this case, `gunzip'
+will extract all members at once. If one member is damaged, other
+members might still be recovered after removal of the damaged member.
+Better compression can be usually obtained if all members are
+decompressed and then recompressed in a single step.
+
+ This is an example of concatenating `gzip' files:
+
+ gzip -c file1 > foo.gz
+ gzip -c file2 >> foo.gz
+
+ Then
+
+ gunzip -c foo
+
+ is equivalent to
+
+ cat file1 file2
+
+ In case of damage to one member of a `.gz' file, other members can
+still be recovered (if the damaged member is removed). However, you can
+get better compression by compressing all members at once:
+
+ cat file1 file2 | gzip > foo.gz
+
+ compresses better than
+
+ gzip -c file1 file2 > foo.gz
+
+ If you want to recompress concatenated files to get better
+compression, do:
+
+ zcat old.gz | gzip > new.gz
+
+ If a compressed file consists of several members, the uncompressed
+size and CRC reported by the `--list' option applies to the last member
+only. If you need the uncompressed size for all members, you can use:
+
+ zcat file.gz | wc -c
+
+ If you wish to create a single archive file with multiple members so
+that members can later be extracted independently, use an archiver such
+as `tar' or `zip'. GNU `tar' supports the `-z' option to invoke `gzip'
+transparently. `gzip' is designed as a complement to `tar', not as a
+replacement.
+
+\1f
+File: gzip.info, Node: Environment, Next: Tapes, Prev: Advanced usage, Up: Top
+
+5 Environment
+*************
+
+The environment variable `GZIP' can hold a set of default options for
+`gzip'. These options are interpreted first and can be overwritten by
+explicit command line parameters. For example:
+
+ for sh: GZIP="-8v --name"; export GZIP
+ for csh: setenv GZIP "-8v --name"
+ for MSDOS: set GZIP=-8v --name
+
+ On Vax/VMS, the name of the environment variable is `GZIP_OPT', to
+avoid a conflict with the symbol set for invocation of the program.
+
+\1f
+File: gzip.info, Node: Tapes, Next: Problems, Prev: Environment, Up: Top
+
+6 Using `gzip' on tapes
+***********************
+
+When writing compressed data to a tape, it is generally necessary to pad
+the output with zeroes up to a block boundary. When the data is read and
+the whole block is passed to `gunzip' for decompression, `gunzip'
+detects that there is extra trailing garbage after the compressed data
+and emits a warning by default if the garbage contains nonzero bytes.
+You have to use the `--quiet' option to suppress the warning. This
+option can be set in the `GZIP' environment variable, as in:
+
+ for sh: GZIP="-q" tar -xfz --block-compress /dev/rst0
+ for csh: (setenv GZIP "-q"; tar -xfz --block-compress /dev/rst0)
+
+ In the above example, `gzip' is invoked implicitly by the `-z'
+option of GNU `tar'. Make sure that the same block size (`-b' option
+of `tar') is used for reading and writing compressed data on tapes.
+(This example assumes you are using the GNU version of `tar'.)

+A.1 GNU Free Documentation License
+==================================
+
+ Version 1.2, November 2002
+
+ Copyright (C) 2000,2001,2002 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
+ 51 Franklin St, 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.
+
+ 0. PREAMBLE
+
+ The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other
+ functional and useful document "free" in the sense of freedom: to
+ assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it,
+ with or without modifying it, either commercially or
+ noncommercially. Secondarily, this License preserves for the
+ author and publisher a way to get credit for their work, while not
+ being considered responsible for modifications made by others.
+
+ This License is a kind of "copyleft", which means that derivative
+ works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense.
+ It complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft
+ license designed for free software.
+
+ We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for
+ free software, because free software needs free documentation: a
+ free program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms
+ that the software does. But this License is not limited to
+ software manuals; it can be used for any textual work, regardless
+ of subject matter or whether it is published as a printed book.
+ We recommend this License principally for works whose purpose is
+ instruction or reference.
+
+ 1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS
+
+ This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium,
+ that contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it
+ can be distributed under the terms of this License. Such a notice
+ grants a world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration,
+ to use that work under the conditions stated herein. The
+ "Document", below, refers to any such manual or work. Any member
+ of the public is a licensee, and is addressed as "you". You
+ accept the license if you copy, modify or distribute the work in a
+ way requiring permission under copyright law.
+
+ A "Modified Version" of the Document means any work containing the
+ Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with
+ modifications and/or translated into another language.
+
+ A "Secondary Section" is a named appendix or a front-matter section
+ of the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the
+ publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall
+ subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could
+ fall directly within that overall subject. (Thus, if the Document
+ is in part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not
+ explain any mathematics.) The relationship could be a matter of
+ historical connection with the subject or with related matters, or
+ of legal, commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position
+ regarding them.
+
+ The "Invariant Sections" are certain Secondary Sections whose
+ titles are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in
+ the notice that says that the Document is released under this
+ License. If a section does not fit the above definition of
+ Secondary then it is not allowed to be designated as Invariant.
+ The Document may contain zero Invariant Sections. If the Document
+ does not identify any Invariant Sections then there are none.
+
+ The "Cover Texts" are certain short passages of text that are
+ listed, as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice
+ that says that the Document is released under this License. A
+ Front-Cover Text may be at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may
+ be at most 25 words.
+
+ A "Transparent" copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy,
+ represented in a format whose specification is available to the
+ general public, that is suitable for revising the document
+ straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images
+ composed of pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some
+ widely available drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to
+ text formatters or for automatic translation to a variety of
+ formats suitable for input to text formatters. A copy made in an
+ otherwise Transparent file format whose markup, or absence of
+ markup, has been arranged to thwart or discourage subsequent
+ modification by readers is not Transparent. An image format is
+ not Transparent if used for any substantial amount of text. A
+ copy that is not "Transparent" is called "Opaque".
+
+ Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
+ ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format,
+ SGML or XML using a publicly available DTD, and
+ standard-conforming simple HTML, PostScript or PDF designed for
+ human modification. Examples of transparent image formats include
+ PNG, XCF and JPG. Opaque formats include proprietary formats that
+ can be read and edited only by proprietary word processors, SGML or
+ XML for which the DTD and/or processing tools are not generally
+ available, and the machine-generated HTML, PostScript or PDF
+ produced by some word processors for output purposes only.
+
+ The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page itself,
+ plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the
+ material this License requires to appear in the title page. For
+ works in formats which do not have any title page as such, "Title
+ Page" means the text near the most prominent appearance of the
+ work's title, preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
+
+ A section "Entitled XYZ" means a named subunit of the Document
+ whose title either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses
+ following text that translates XYZ in another language. (Here XYZ
+ stands for a specific section name mentioned below, such as
+ "Acknowledgements", "Dedications", "Endorsements", or "History".)
+ To "Preserve the Title" of such a section when you modify the
+ Document means that it remains a section "Entitled XYZ" according
+ to this definition.
+
+ The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice
+ which states that this License applies to the Document. These
+ Warranty Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in
+ this License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other
+ implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and
+ has no effect on the meaning of this License.
+
+ 2. VERBATIM COPYING
+
+ You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
+ commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
+ copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License
+ applies to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you
+ add no other conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You
+ may not use technical measures to obstruct or control the reading
+ or further copying of the copies you make or distribute. However,
+ you may accept compensation in exchange for copies. If you
+ distribute a large enough number of copies you must also follow
+ the conditions in section 3.
+
+ You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above,
+ and you may publicly display copies.
+
+ 3. COPYING IN QUANTITY
+
+ If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly
+ have printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and
+ the Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must
+ enclose the copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all
+ these Cover Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and
+ Back-Cover Texts on the back cover. Both covers must also clearly
+ and legibly identify you as the publisher of these copies. The
+ front cover must present the full title with all words of the
+ title equally prominent and visible. You may add other material
+ on the covers in addition. Copying with changes limited to the
+ covers, as long as they preserve the title of the Document and
+ satisfy these conditions, can be treated as verbatim copying in
+ other respects.
+
+ If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
+ legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
+ reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto
+ adjacent pages.
+
+ If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document
+ numbering more than 100, you must either include a
+ machine-readable Transparent copy along with each Opaque copy, or
+ state in or with each Opaque copy a computer-network location from
+ which the general network-using public has access to download
+ using public-standard network protocols a complete Transparent
+ copy of the Document, free of added material. If you use the
+ latter option, you must take reasonably prudent steps, when you
+ begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure that
+ this Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated
+ location until at least one year after the last time you
+ distribute an Opaque copy (directly or through your agents or
+ retailers) of that edition to the public.
+
+ It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of
+ the Document well before redistributing any large number of
+ copies, to give them a chance to provide you with an updated
+ version of the Document.
+
+ 4. MODIFICATIONS
+
+ You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document
+ under the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you
+ release the Modified Version under precisely this License, with
+ the Modified Version filling the role of the Document, thus
+ licensing distribution and modification of the Modified Version to
+ whoever possesses a copy of it. In addition, you must do these
+ things in the Modified Version:
+
+ A. Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title
+ distinct from that of the Document, and from those of
+ previous versions (which should, if there were any, be listed
+ in the History section of the Document). You may use the
+ same title as a previous version if the original publisher of
+ that version gives permission.
+
+ B. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or
+ entities responsible for authorship of the modifications in
+ the Modified Version, together with at least five of the
+ principal authors of the Document (all of its principal
+ authors, if it has fewer than five), unless they release you
+ from this requirement.
+
+ C. State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the
+ Modified Version, as the publisher.
+
+ D. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.
+
+ E. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications
+ adjacent to the other copyright notices.
+
+ F. Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license
+ notice giving the public permission to use the Modified
+ Version under the terms of this License, in the form shown in
+ the Addendum below.
+
+ G. Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant
+ Sections and required Cover Texts given in the Document's
+ license notice.
+
+ H. Include an unaltered copy of this License.
+
+ I. Preserve the section Entitled "History", Preserve its Title,
+ and add to it an item stating at least the title, year, new
+ authors, and publisher of the Modified Version as given on
+ the Title Page. If there is no section Entitled "History" in
+ the Document, create one stating the title, year, authors,
+ and publisher of the Document as given on its Title Page,
+ then add an item describing the Modified Version as stated in
+ the previous sentence.
+
+ J. Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document
+ for public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and
+ likewise the network locations given in the Document for
+ previous versions it was based on. These may be placed in
+ the "History" section. You may omit a network location for a
+ work that was published at least four years before the
+ Document itself, or if the original publisher of the version
+ it refers to gives permission.
+
+ K. For any section Entitled "Acknowledgements" or "Dedications",
+ Preserve the Title of the section, and preserve in the
+ section all the substance and tone of each of the contributor
+ acknowledgements and/or dedications given therein.
+
+ L. Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document,
+ unaltered in their text and in their titles. Section numbers
+ or the equivalent are not considered part of the section
+ titles.
+
+ M. Delete any section Entitled "Endorsements". Such a section
+ may not be included in the Modified Version.
+
+ N. Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled
+ "Endorsements" or to conflict in title with any Invariant
+ Section.
+
+ O. Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers.
+
+ If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or
+ appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no
+ material copied from the Document, you may at your option
+ designate some or all of these sections as invariant. To do this,
+ add their titles to the list of Invariant Sections in the Modified
+ Version's license notice. These titles must be distinct from any
+ other section titles.
+
+ You may add a section Entitled "Endorsements", provided it contains
+ nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various
+ parties--for example, statements of peer review or that the text
+ has been approved by an organization as the authoritative
+ definition of a standard.
+
+ You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text,
+ and a passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end
+ of the list of Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one
+ passage of Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be
+ added by (or through arrangements made by) any one entity. If the
+ Document already includes a cover text for the same cover,
+ previously added by you or by arrangement made by the same entity
+ you are acting on behalf of, you may not add another; but you may
+ replace the old one, on explicit permission from the previous
+ publisher that added the old one.
+
+ The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this
+ License give permission to use their names for publicity for or to
+ assert or imply endorsement of any Modified Version.
+
+ 5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS
+
+ You may combine the Document with other documents released under
+ this License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for
+ modified versions, provided that you include in the combination
+ all of the Invariant Sections of all of the original documents,
+ unmodified, and list them all as Invariant Sections of your
+ combined work in its license notice, and that you preserve all
+ their Warranty Disclaimers.
+
+ The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
+ multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single
+ copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name
+ but different contents, make the title of each such section unique
+ by adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the
+ original author or publisher of that section if known, or else a
+ unique number. Make the same adjustment to the section titles in
+ the list of Invariant Sections in the license notice of the
+ combined work.
+
+ In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled
+ "History" in the various original documents, forming one section
+ Entitled "History"; likewise combine any sections Entitled
+ "Acknowledgements", and any sections Entitled "Dedications". You
+ must delete all sections Entitled "Endorsements."
+
+ 6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS
+
+ You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other
+ documents released under this License, and replace the individual
+ copies of this License in the various documents with a single copy
+ that is included in the collection, provided that you follow the
+ rules of this License for verbatim copying of each of the
+ documents in all other respects.
+
+ You may extract a single document from such a collection, and
+ distribute it individually under this License, provided you insert
+ a copy of this License into the extracted document, and follow
+ this License in all other respects regarding verbatim copying of
+ that document.
+
+ 7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS
+
+ A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other
+ separate and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of
+ a storage or distribution medium, is called an "aggregate" if the
+ copyright resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the
+ legal rights of the compilation's users beyond what the individual
+ works permit. When the Document is included in an aggregate, this
+ License does not apply to the other works in the aggregate which
+ are not themselves derivative works of the Document.
+
+ If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these
+ copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half
+ of the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed
+ on covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the
+ electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic
+ form. Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that bracket
+ the whole aggregate.
+
+ 8. TRANSLATION
+
+ Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
+ distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section
+ 4. Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special
+ permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
+ translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
+ original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a
+ translation of this License, and all the license notices in the
+ Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also
+ include the original English version of this License and the
+ original versions of those notices and disclaimers. In case of a
+ disagreement between the translation and the original version of
+ this License or a notice or disclaimer, the original version will
+ prevail.
+
+ If a section in the Document is Entitled "Acknowledgements",
+ "Dedications", or "History", the requirement (section 4) to
+ Preserve its Title (section 1) will typically require changing the
+ actual title.
+
+ 9. TERMINATION
+
+ You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document
+ except as expressly provided for under this License. Any other
+ attempt to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Document 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.
+
+ 10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE
+
+ The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of
+ the GNU Free Documentation 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. See
+ `http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/'.
+
+ Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version
+ number. If the Document specifies that a particular numbered
+ version of this License "or any later version" applies to it, you
+ have the option of following the terms and conditions either of
+ that specified version or of any later version that has been
+ published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation. If
+ the Document does not specify a version number of this License,
+ you may choose any version ever published (not as a draft) by the
+ Free Software Foundation.
+
+ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents
+====================================================
+
+To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of
+the License in the document and put the following copyright and license
+notices just after the title page:
+
+ Copyright (C) YEAR YOUR NAME.
+ Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document
+ under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2
+ or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation;
+ with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover
+ Texts. A copy of the license is included in the section entitled ``GNU
+ Free Documentation License''.
+
+ If you have Invariant Sections, Front-Cover Texts and Back-Cover
+Texts, replace the "with...Texts." line with this:
+
+ with the Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with
+ the Front-Cover Texts being LIST, and with the Back-Cover Texts
+ being LIST.
+
+ If you have Invariant Sections without Cover Texts, or some other
+combination of the three, merge those two alternatives to suit the
+situation.
+
+ If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we
+recommend releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of
+free software license, such as the GNU General Public License, to
+permit their use in free software.
