+License: LibJPEG
+ In plain English:
+ .
+  1. We don't promise that this software works.  (But if you find any bugs,
+     please let us know!)
+  2. You can use this software for whatever you want.  You don't have to pay us.
+  3. You may not pretend that you wrote this software.  If you use it in a
+     program, you must acknowledge somewhere in your documentation that
+     you've used the IJG code.
+ .
+ In legalese:
+ .
+ The authors make NO WARRANTY or representation, either express or implied,
+ with respect to this software, its quality, accuracy, merchantability, or
+ fitness for a particular purpose.  This software is provided "AS IS", and
+ you, its user, assume the entire risk as to its quality and accuracy.

+ This software is copyright (C) 1991-1998, Thomas G. Lane.
+ All Rights Reserved except as specified below.
+ .
+ Permission is hereby granted to use, copy, modify, and distribute this
+ software (or portions thereof) for any purpose, without fee, subject to these
+ conditions:
+ (1) If any part of the source code for this software is distributed, then this
+ README file must be included, with this copyright and no-warranty notice
+ unaltered; and any additions, deletions, or changes to the original files
+ must be clearly indicated in accompanying documentation.
+ (2) If only executable code is distributed, then the accompanying
+ documentation must state that "this software is based in part on the work of
+ the Independent JPEG Group".
+ (3) Permission for use of this software is granted only if the user accepts
+ full responsibility for any undesirable consequences; the authors accept
+ NO LIABILITY for damages of any kind.
+ .
+ These conditions apply to any software derived from or based on the IJG code,
+ not just to the unmodified library.  If you use our work, you ought to
+ acknowledge us.
+ .
+ Permission is NOT granted for the use of any IJG author's name or company name
+ in advertising or publicity relating to this software or products derived from
+ it.  This software may be referred to only as "the Independent JPEG Group's
+ software".
+ .
+ We specifically permit and encourage the use of this software as the basis of
+ commercial products, provided that all warranty or liability claims are
+ assumed by the product vendor.
+ .
+ ansi2knr.c is included in this distribution by permission of L. 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,
+ ltconfig, ltmain.sh).  Another support script, install-sh, is copyright
+ by M.I.T. but is also freely distributable.
+ .
+ It appears that the arithmetic coding option of the JPEG spec is covered by
+ patents owned by IBM, AT&T, and Mitsubishi.  Hence arithmetic coding cannot
+ legally be used without obtaining one or more licenses.  For this reason,
+ support for arithmetic coding has been removed from the free JPEG software.
+ (Since arithmetic coding provides only a marginal gain over the unpatented
+ Huffman mode, it is unlikely that very many implementations will support it.)
+ So far as we are aware, there are no patent restrictions on the remaining
+ code.
+ .
+ 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."
