Yes, it's meant to be GPL, although the lack of inclusion of the actual GPL text was a smidge sloppy. :v) If you're including it with something else under the GPL, you're set. If your modifications don't impact the program negatively when not used with your system, or if they're switchable, you might send me a patch to put into the info2html source distribution. Then, in the unlikely event that info2html is ever improved, you'd not have to back-patch it. :v) --Jon
