1 This is the Inform compiler. It has been modified slightly to work
2 better when the Inform standard library is in a non-standard
5 Compiling Inform is very easy. You'll need a compiler (like GCC),
6 along with the GNU Autotools and GNU Make.
8 First run autoreconf --install; then see the INSTALL file for
9 installation information.
11 Inform 6 is published under the original Inform licence (which is
12 proprietary), or under the Artistic License 2.0, at the user's choice.
14 When getting a copy of the software I selected that my copy would be
15 under the Artistic License 2.0.
17 Once I had a copy of the software under that license I invoked the
18 Artistic License's "relicensing" clause in Section 4(c)(ii) to
19 relicense under the GNU General Public License. This copy of Inform is
20 now licensed in that way.

24 from the Perl Software Foundation, who wrote both the Artistic License
25 1.0 and 2.0, the GPL qualifies under 4(c)(ii).
