Hi Dan,

I'm sorry for your lack of humor, which is something important also in
the context of an operating system.

Anyway i strongly oppose your request and i will react to it with any
possible means! please respect the original concept of an author, you
can twist my code but you can't change the way i want it to be
presented.

in case you are an arrogant person (i don't mean you are, i just don't
know you at all) then consider that the GNU FDL license applied to the
manual and documentation of hasciicam requires: the Invariant Sections
being NAME, SYNOPSIS, DESCRIPTION, AUTHOR

(h)ascii for the masses!!!

please think about it, it's not so bad, the world can be a better place
if some things are not exactly aligned - the bridge between sign and
significant is always a good place where to train your spirit.

ciao

In that case, I think you should reword the description in order not
to cause the full Packages file to fall under the FDL due to being an
aggregated work.
