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
       -n     Don't retain .bak backup files.

       -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
              Specify  the  license  notice to apply to the source-code files.  The supported licenses are: gpl,
              gplv3+, gplv3, gplv2+, gplv2, gplv1+, gplv1, lgpl,  lgplv3+,  lgplv3,  lgplv2+,  lgplv2,  lgplv1+,
              lgplv1,  agpl,  agplv3+,  agplv3,  fdl,  fdlv13+,  fdlv13,  fdlv12+, fdlv12, fdlv11+, fdlv11, all-
              permissive, bsd, bsd3clause, bsd2clause, apache, apachev2, mit, isc, and openbsd.

       -s COMMENTING-STYLE
              Specify the commenting style.  The  supported  commenting  styles  are:  c,  c++,  shell,  scheme,
              texinfo, m4, haskell, groff, gettext, fortran, and pascal.
