21 | Subject: Use of Readline | |
22 | Reply-to: rms@gnu.org | |

24 | I think Allbery's suggestion is a good one. So please add this text | |
25 | in a suitable place. Please don't put it in the GPL itself; that | |
26 | should be the same as the GPL everywhere else. Putting it in the | |
27 | README and/or the documentation would be a good idea. | |

30 | ====================================================================== | |
31 | Our position on the use of Readline through a shared-library linking | |
32 | mechanism is that there is no legal difference between shared-library | |
33 | linking and static linking--either kind of linking combines various | |
34 | modules into a single larger work. The conditions for using Readline | |
35 | in a larger work are stated in section 3 of the GNU GPL. | |
