Abstract

GPL enforcement is successful in Europe. In several court decisions and out of court settlements the license conditions of the GPL have been successfully enforced. In particular, embedded systems are the main focus of such compliance activities. The article describes the practice of enforcement activities and the legal prerequisites under the application of German law.

NAME
hercules -- System/370, ESA/390 and z/Architecture Emulator SYNOPSIS
hercules [-f config-file] DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the hercules program. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. Instead, it has documentation in HTML format; see below. Hercules is an open source software implementation of the mainframe System/370 and ESA/390 architectures, in addition to the new 64-bit z/Architecure. Hercules runs under Linux, Windows 98, Windows NT, and Windows 2000. OPTIONS
-f Use a config file other than /etc/hercules/hercules.cnf SEE ALSO
The programs are documented fully by The Hercules System/370, ESA/390, and z/Architecture Emulator available in /usr/share/doc/her- cules/html. AUTHOR
Hercules was created by Roger Bowler and is maintained by Jay Maynard. Jan Jaeger designed and implemented many of the advanced features of Hercules, including dynamic reconfiguration, integrated console, interpretive execution, and z/Architecture support. This manual page was written by Matt Zimmerman mdz@debian.org for the Debian GNU/Linux system (but may be used by others).
