The majority of the files in the C-INTERCAL distribution
are licensed under the GNU General Public License (version 2 or later),
but with some exceptions. The files ick-wrap.c and
pickwrap.c are licensed under a license that allows them
to be used for any purpose and redistributed at will, and are
explicitly not GPL’d. This means that C source code generated by
the compiler has the same copyright conditions as the original
INTERCAL source. (Note that the libraries
libick.a and libickmt.a are GPL, though, so
you cannot redistribute an executable produced by ick
or
by linking a C file to either of those libraries unless the original
INTERCAL source was GPL.) For similar reasons, the
expansion libraries syslibc.c and compunex.c
are explicitly public domain. Also, this manual, and the files that are
the source code for creating it, are licensed under the GNU Free
Documentation License rather than the GPL, and the licenses themselves
(fdl-1-2.txi and COPYING.txt) are licensed
under a license that allows verbatim redistribution but not creation of
derivative works. All other files, though (including the
man
pages, which are not part of this manual),
are licensed under the GPL. For the full text of the GPL, see the file
COPYING.txt in the distribution.
