   5.- Un programa que no contenga ningun trabajo derivado de una biblioteca,
       pero que haya sido dise�ado para trabajar con la biblioteca por medio de
       la compilacion o enlazado con ella, se denomina "Trabajo que usa la
       biblioteca". Como tal trabajo, de forma aislada, no es un trabajo derivado
       de la biblioteca, y por lo tanto cae fuera del alcance de esta licencia.

       Sin embargo, el enlazado de un "Trabajo que usa la biblioteca" con dicha
       biblioteca o su creacion con dicha biblioteca puede ser un "Trabajo derivado
       de la biblioteca" (porque este puede contener porciones de dicha biblioteca)
       mas que un "Trabajo que usa la biblioteca". El ejecutable, por lo tanto,
       esta cubierto por esta licencia. La seccion 6 indica los terminos para la
       distribucion de tales ejecutables.

       Cuando un "Trabajo que usa la biblioteca" utiliza material de cabecera, este
       es parte de la libreria. Por lo tanto el codigo objeto del trabajo puede ser
       un trabajo derivado de la biblioteca, aunque el codigo fuente no lo sea.
       Esto es especialmente significativo si el trabajo puede ser enlazado sin la
       libreria, o si el trabajo es en si mismo una libreria. El umbral para que 
       esto sea verdad no esta definido de forma exacta por la ley.

       Si este objeto utiliza solamentes parametros numericos, disposicion de
       estructuras de datos y accesorios, y/o macros peque�as y/o funciones en
       linea (de no mas de 10 lineas de longitud), entonces el uso de este codigo
       objeto podra ser utilizado sin restrinciones, sin importar si es legal el
       uso de un trabajo derivado. (El uso de ejecutables que contengan este codigo
       objeto y porciones de la biblioteca esta cubierto en la seccion 6 de esta
       licencia).

       Si no es asi, si el trabajo es un derivado de la biblioteca, usted puede
       distribuir el codigo objeto para el trabajo bajo terminos de la seccion 6).
       Cualquier ejecutable que contenga ese trabajo tambien esta cubierto en la
       seccion 6, est�e o no conectado directamente a la biblioteca.


   6.- Como escepcion a la seccion anterior, usted puede tambien compilar on enlazar
       un "Trabajo que usa la biblioteca" con la biblioteca y producir un trabajo
       conteniendo porciones de la biblioteca, y distribuir el trabajo con los 
       terminos particulares de su licencia particular, a condicion de que dichos 
       terminos particulares permitan la modificacion del trabajo por el 
       cliente/usuario y la ingenieria inversa para depuraciones de/como/y??
       modificaciones.

       Usted debe de dar un aviso prominente con cada copia del trabajo de que la
       biblioteca se utiliza en dicho trabajo y que dicha biblioteca esta cubierta
       por esta licencia (LGPL). Usted debe de proporcionar una copia de esta
       licencia. Si el trabajo, durante su ejecucion visualiza avisos de copyright,
       usted debe de incluir el aviso de copyright para esta biblioteca entre ellos,
       asi como una referencia que diriga al utilizador a la copia de esta licencia.
       Tambien debe de hacer una de estas cosas:
       (Also you must do one of these things):

     a) Acompa�ar el trabajo con el codigo fuente legible de la biblioteca incluyendo
        cualesquiera cambios fueron utilizados en el trabajo (que se debe de
        distribuir bajo las secciones 1 y 2 (arriba)); y si el trabajo es un
        ejecutable enlazado con la biblioteca, se acompa�aran tambien el codigo
        objeto y/o el codigo fuente de dicho trabajo, de modo que el usuario
        pueda modificar la libreria y reenlazar para producir un ejecutable
        conteniendo la libreria modificada. (Se entiende que el utilizador que
        cambia el contenido de las definiciones de cabecera de la biblioteca
        no podra necesariamente recompilar el trabajo utilizando las definiciones
        modificadas).

     b) Acompa�ar el trabajo con una oferta escrita, valida por lo menos durante
        tres a�os, para dar al utilizador los materiales especificados en la 
        subseccion 6a (arriba), por un coste no superior al de esta distribucion.

     c) Si la distrubicion del trabajo se hace ofreciendo acceso a la copia
        desde un lugar designado. Oferta equivalente de acceso para copiar el
        material arriba especificado desde el mismo lugar.

     d) Verificar que el utilizador haya recibido una copia de estos materiales
        o que usted ya ha enviado a este utilizador una copia.



       Para un ejecutable, la forma requerida del "Trabajo que utiliza la 
       biblioteca" debe incluir cualesquiera datos y programas necesarios
       para reproducir el ejecutable del trabajo. Sin embargo, y como una
       escepcion especial, la distribucion del codigo fuente y binarios de
       los componentes distribuidos (compiladores, kernel, s.o., ...) no es
       necesario incluirlo a menos que ese componente en si mismo deba
       de acompa�ar al ejecutable.


       Puede suceder que este requisito anterior contradiga las restricciones
       de la licencia de otras bibliotecas propietarias que no acompa�en
       normalmente al sistema operativo. Tal contradiccion significa que
       usted no puede utilizar ambas bibliotecas en el ejecutable que usted
       distribuya.

GNU LIBRARY GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE

   Version 2, June 1991
   
Copyright (C) 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
59 Temple Place - Suite 330, Boston, MA  02111-1307, USA
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

[This is the first released version of the library GPL.  It is
 numbered 2 because it goes with version 2 of the ordinary GPL.]

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 Library General Public License, applies to some
   specially designated Free Software Foundation software, and to any
   other libraries whose authors decide to use it. You can use it for
   your libraries, too.
   
   When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, 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 or use pieces of it
   in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
   
   To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
   anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the 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 a program with the library, you must provide
   complete object files to the recipients so that they can relink them
   with the library, after making changes to the library and recompiling
   it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
   
   Our method of protecting your rights has two steps: (1) copyright the
   library, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal
   permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.
   
   Also, for each distributor's protection, we want to make certain that
   everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free library.
   If the library is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its
   recipients to know that what they have is not the original version, so
   that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the
   original authors' reputations.
   
   Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
   patents. We wish to avoid the danger that companies distributing free
   software will individually obtain patent licenses, thus in effect
   transforming the program into proprietary software. To prevent this,
   we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone's
   free use or not licensed at all.
   
   Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the
   ordinary GNU General Public License, which was designed for utility
   programs. This license, the GNU Library General Public License,
   applies to certain designated libraries. This license is quite
   different from the ordinary one; be sure to read it in full, and don't
   assume that anything in it is the same as in the ordinary license.
   
   The reason we have a separate public license for some libraries is
   that they blur the distinction we usually make between modifying or
   adding to a program and simply using it. Linking a program with a
   library, without changing the library, is in some sense simply using
   the library, and is analogous to running a utility program or
   application program. However, in a textual and legal sense, the linked
   executable is a combined work, a derivative of the original library,
   and the ordinary General Public License treats it as such.
   
   Because of this blurred distinction, using the ordinary General Public
   License for libraries did not effectively promote software sharing,
   because most developers did not use the libraries. We concluded that
   weaker conditions might promote sharing better.
   
   However, unrestricted linking of non-free programs would deprive the
   users of those programs of all benefit from the free status of the
   libraries themselves. This Library General Public License is intended
   to permit developers of non-free programs to use free libraries, while
   preserving your freedom as a user of such programs to change the free
   libraries that are incorporated in them. (We have not seen how to
   achieve this as regards changes in header files, but we have achieved
   it as regards changes in the actual functions of the Library.) The
   hope is that this will lead to faster development of free libraries.
   
   The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
   modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a
   "work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The
   former contains code derived from the library, while the latter only
   works together with the library.
   
   Note that it is possible for a library to be covered by the ordinary
   General Public License rather than by this special one.
   
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION

   0. This License Agreement applies to any software library which
   contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or other authorized
   party saying it may be distributed under the terms of this Library
   General Public License (also called "this License"). Each licensee is
   addressed as "you".
   
   A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data
   prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs
   (which use some of those functions and data) to form executables.
   
   The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work
   which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the
   Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under
   copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a
   portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated
   straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is
   included without limitation in the term "modification".)
   
   "Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for
   making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means
   all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated
   interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control
   compilation and installation of the library.
   
   Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
   covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
   running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from
   such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based
   on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for
   writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does and
   what the program that uses the Library does.
   
   1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's
   complete 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 distribute a copy of this License along with the
   Library.
   
   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 Library or any portion of
   it, thus forming a work based on the Library, 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) The modified work must itself be a software library.
     * b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices
       stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
     * c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no
       charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
     * d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a
       table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses
       the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility
       is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that,
       in the event an application does not supply such function or
       table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of
       its purpose remains meaningful. (For example, a function in a
       library to compute square roots has a purpose that is entirely
       well-defined independent of the application. Therefore, Subsection
       2d requires that any application-supplied function or table used
       by this function must be optional: if the application does not
       supply it, the square root function must still compute square
       roots.)
       
   These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
   identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library,
   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 Library, 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 Library.
   
   In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library
   with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of
   a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
   the scope of this License.
   
   3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public
   License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do
   this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so
   that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2,
   instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the
   ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify
   that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in
   these notices.
   
   Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for that
   copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all
   subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy.
   
   This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of the
   Library into a program that is not a library.
   
   4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or derivative
   of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the
   terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany it with
   the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be
   distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
   customarily used for software interchange.
   
   If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy from
   a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source
   code from the same place satisfies the requirement to distribute the
   source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the
   source along with the object code.
   
   5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the
   Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or
   linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a work,
   in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and therefore
   falls outside the scope of this License.
   
   However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library
   creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it
   contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the
   library". The executable is therefore covered by this License. Section
   6 states terms for distribution of such executables.
   
   When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file
   that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a
   derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not.
   Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be
   linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The
   threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law.
   
   If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data structure
   layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline functions
   (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object file is
   unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative work.
   (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the Library
   will still fall under Section 6.)
   
   Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may
   distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6.
   Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6,
   whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.
   
   6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also compile or link
   a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a work
   containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work under
   terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit modification of
   the work for the customer's own use and reverse engineering for
   debugging such modifications.
   
   You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the
   Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by
   this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work
   during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the
   copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference
   directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one
   of these things:
     * a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding
       machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever
       changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under
       Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked
       with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that
       uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the
       user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified
       executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood that
       the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the
       Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application
       to use the modified definitions.)
     * b) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at least
       three years, to give the same user the materials specified in
       Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more than the cost of
       performing this distribution.
     * c) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy
       from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above
       specified materials from the same place.
     * d) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these
       materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.
       
   For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the
   Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for
   reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception,
   the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally
   distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major
   components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on
   which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies
   the executable.
   
   It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license
   restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally
   accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot
   use both them and the Library together in an executable that you
   distribute.
   
   7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
   Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library
   facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined
   library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on
   the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise
   permitted, and provided that you do these two things:
     * a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work
       based on the Library, uncombined with any other library
       facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the
       Sections above.
     * b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact
       that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining
       where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
       
   8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the
   Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
   otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the
   Library is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
   this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights,
   from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so
   long as such parties remain in full compliance.
   
   9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
   signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
   distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are
   prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
   modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the
   Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
   all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
   the Library or works based on it.
   
   10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the
   Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
   original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library
   subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
   restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
   You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
   this License.
   
   11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
   infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
   conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
   otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
   excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
   distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
   License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
   may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent
   license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by
   all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
   the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
   refrain entirely from distribution of the Library.
   
   If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
   any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
   apply, and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
   circumstances.
   
   It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
   patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
   such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
   integrity of the free software distribution system which is
   implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
   generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
   through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
   system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
   to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
   impose that choice.
   
   This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
   be a consequence of the rest of this License.
   
   12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in
   certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
   original copyright holder who places the Library under this License
   may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
   those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
   countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates
   the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
   
   13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new
   versions of the Library General Public License from time to time. Such
   new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
   differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
   
   Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library
   specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and
   "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and
   conditions either of that version or of any later version published by
   the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a
   license version number, you may choose any version ever published by
   the Free Software Foundation.
   
   14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free
   programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these,
   write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is
   copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free
   Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our
   decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status
   of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing
   and reuse of software generally.
   
   NO WARRANTY
   
   15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
   WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
   EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR
   OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY
   KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE
   IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
   PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE
   LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME
   THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
   
   16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN
   WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY
   AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU
   FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
   CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE
   LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING
   RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A
   FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF
   SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
   DAMAGES.
   
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries

   If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest
   possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that
   everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting
   redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms
   of the ordinary General Public License).
   
   To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It
   is safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most
   effectively convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should
   have at least the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full
   notice is found.
   
one line to give the library's name and an idea of what it does.
Copyright (C) year  name of author

   Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper
   mail.
   
   You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or
   your school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the library,
   if necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
