# Copyleft and GPL Tutorial Materials
|
|
|
|
This repository contains various tutorial materials regarding the suite of GNU General
|
|
Public Licenses and copyleft (as applied to software).
|
|
|
|
The primary item of interest is an omnibus book on copyleft that is built
|
|
from the comprehensive-GPL-guide.tex file.
|
|
|
|
You can build this project with the following command:
|
|
|
|
$ make
|
|
|
|
HTML output will be in the public_html directory and a PDF file will be in comprehensive-gpl-guide.pdf.
|
|
|
|
You may need to first install texlive, tex4ht and a few other things. On
|
|
Debian-based systems, this command may work as root:
|
|
|
|
# aptitude install texlive-full make tex4ht
|
|
|
|
You may also
|
|
[browse the current version of the guide on copyleft.org](https://copyleft.org/guide/),
|
|
and [download a PDF of the Guide as well](http://copyleft.org/guide/comprehensive-gpl-guide.pdf).
