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.
