23 licensecheck - simple license checker for source files
27 B<licensecheck> B<--help>|B<--version>
29 B<licensecheck> [B<--no-conf>] [B<--verbose>] [B<--copyright>]
30 [B<-l>|B<--lines=>I<N>] [B<-i>|B<--ignore=>I<regex>] [B<-c>|B<--check=>I<regex>]
31 [B<-r>|B<--recursive>] I<list of files and directories to check>
35 B<licensecheck> attempts to determine the license that applies to each file
36 passed to it, by searching the start of the file for text belonging to
39 If any of the arguments passed are directories, B<licensecheck> will add
40 the files contained within to the list of files to process.
46 =item B<--verbose>, B<--no-verbose>
48 Specify whether to output the text being processed from each file before
49 the corresponding license information.
51 Default is to be quiet.
53 =item B<-l=>I<N>, B<--lines=>I<N>
55 Specify the number of lines of each file's header which should be parsed
56 for license information. (Default is 60).
58 =item B<-i=>I<regex>, B<--ignore=>I<regex>
60 When processing the list of files and directories, the regular
61 expression specified by this option will be used to indicate those which
62 should not be considered (e.g. backup files, VCS metadata).
64 =item B<-r>, B<--recursive>
66 Specify that the contents of directories should be added
69 =item B<-c=>I<regex>, B<--check=>I<regex>
71 Specify a pattern against which filenames will be matched in order to
72 decide which files to check the license of.
74 The default includes common source files.
78 Also display copyright text found within the file
80 =item B<--no-conf>, B<--noconf>
82 Do not read any configuration files. This can only be used as the first
83 option given on the command-line.
87 =head1 CONFIGURATION VARIABLES
89 The two configuration files F</etc/devscripts.conf> and
90 F<~/.devscripts> are sourced by a shell in that order to set
91 configuration variables. Command line options can be used to override
92 configuration file settings. Environment variable settings are
93 ignored for this purpose. The currently recognised variables are:
97 =item B<LICENSECHECK_VERBOSE>
99 If this is set to I<yes>, then it is the same as the B<--verbose> command
100 line parameter being used. The default is I<no>.
102 =item B<LICENSECHECK_PARSELINES>
104 If this is set to a positive number then the specified number of lines
105 at the start of each file will be read whilst attempting to determine
106 the license(s) in use. This is equivalent to the B<--lines> command line
