from the Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the 
Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). Whether 
that is true depends on what the Program does. 

1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as 
you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately 
publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; 
keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any 
warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License 
along with the Program. You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a 
copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.

2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus 
forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such modifications 
or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of 
these conditions: 

a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you 
changed the files and the date of any change.

b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part 
contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a 
whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License. 

c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you 
must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most ordinary 
way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright 
notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a 
warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under these conditions, 
and telling the user how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if the Program 
itself is interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, your work 
based on the Program is not required to print an announcement.)

These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections 
of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered 
independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, 
do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But 
when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on 
the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, 
whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to 
each and every part regardless of who wrote it. Thus, it is not the intent of this 
section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; 
rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or 
collective works based on the Program. In addition, mere aggregation of another 
work not based on the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the 
Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the 
other work under the scope of this License.
