NAME

       notice - a utility for writing license notices to source files.

SYNOPSIS

       notice [OPTION...] [FILE...]

DESCRIPTION

       The notice command is a simple way to add a boilerplate to a set of source-code files.  It
       is a wrapper script for the licensing program.

EXAMPLES

       The notice command is most often used like so:

              $ licensing notice -c 'Yoyo, Inc. 2001' -l gpl -s c -n *.[ch]
              apply: foo.c -> Boilerplate applied.
              apply: bar.c -> Boilerplate applied.
              apply: qux.c -> Boilerplate applied.
              apply: foo.h -> Boilerplate applied.

       This example applies the license notice for the latest  version  of  the  GPL  in  the  C-
       commenting  style  to  all of the .c and .h files in the current directory.  The copyright
       holder is Yoyo, Inc, in the year 2001.

OPTIONS

       -c NAME-AND-YEAR
              Specify the copyright holder and years. The syntax for copyright years  allows  for
              years  separated  by  a  comma, and also ranges of years separated by a hyphen.  In
              most shells, the argument for this option must be enclosed in single quotes.

       -l LICENSE
