Appendix G. Licenses 177
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 some-
thing 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.
<signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1989
Ty Coon, President of Vice
This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into propri-
etary 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.
