Generate an open source license for your projects.
gem install license-generator
licgen <license> [<author1>, [<author2> ...]]
Too see the available license templates:
licgen list
They are provided in the gem as templates.
There are a lot. See http://www.opensource.org/licenses/alphabetical.
Simply fork, add an ERB template to the templates directory, and send me a
pull request.
Since it's ERB you can use ruby to include things like the current date. You can also prompt the user for input like this:
<%= option(:name) %>
Since author name will be needed for almost all templates, a special template variable is provided:
<%= authors %>
If authors are not specified on the command line, it will prompt the user.
