Gnu Lesser General Public License; Preamble - Sony HVO-1000MD Guia Del Usuario

License.Of course, the commands you use may be called
something 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.

This General Public License does not permit incorporating
your program into proprietary 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 Lesser General
Public License instead of this License.

Preamble

The licenses for most software are designed to take away
your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU
General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your
freedom to share and change free software--to make sure
the software is free for all its users.
This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to
some specially designated software packages--typically
libraries--of the Free Software Foundation and other
authors who decide to use it. You can use it too, but we
suggest you first think carefully about whether this license
or the ordinary General Public License is the better
strategy to use in any particular case, based on the
explanations below.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to
freedom of use, not price. Our General Public Licenses are
designed to make sure that you have the freedom to
distribute copies of free software (and charge for this
service if you wish); that you receive source code or can
get it if you want it; that you can change the software and
use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you are
informed that you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that
forbid distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to
surrender these rights. These restrictions translate to
certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of
the library or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of the library,
whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all
the rights that we gave you. You must make sure that they,
too, receive or can get the source code. If you link other
code with the library, you must provide complete object
