Peter Deutsch, +sole proprietor of its copyright holder, Aladdin Enterprises of Menlo Park, CA. +ansi2knr.c is NOT covered by the above copyright and conditions, but instead +by the usual distribution terms of the Free Software Foundation; principally, +that you must include source code if you redistribute it. (See the file +ansi2knr.c for full details.) However, since ansi2knr.c is not needed as part +of any program generated from the IJG code, this does not limit you more than +the foregoing paragraphs do. + +The Unix configuration script "configure" was produced with GNU Autoconf. +It is copyright by the Free Software Foundation but is freely distributable. +The same holds for its supporting scripts (config.guess, config.sub, +ltmain.sh). Another support script, install-sh, is copyright by X Consortium +but is also freely distributable. + +The IJG distribution formerly included code to read and write GIF files. +To avoid entanglement with the Unisys LZW patent, GIF reading support has +been removed altogether, and the GIF writer has been simplified to produce +"uncompressed GIFs". This technique does not use the LZW algorithm; the +resulting GIF files are larger than usual, but are readable by all standard +GIF decoders. + +We are required to state that + "The Graphics Interchange Format(c) is the Copyright property of + CompuServe Incorporated. GIF(sm) is a Service Mark property of + CompuServe Incorporated." |
