SUSPICIOUS-SOURCE(1)        General Commands Manual       SUSPICIOUS-SOURCE(1)

NAME
       suspicious-source - search for files that do not meet the GPL's defini-
       tion of "source" for a work

SYNOPSIS
       suspicious-source [options]

DESCRIPTION
       suspicious-source outputs a list of files which are  probably  not  the
       source form of a work.  This should be run in the root of a source tree
       to find files which might not be, in the definition from the  GNU  GPL,
       the "preferred form of the work for making modifications to it".

       The  files  inside  version  control  system directories (like .bzr/ or
       CVS/) are not considered.

OPTIONS
       -h, --help
              Show this help message and exit.

       -v, --verbose
              Print more information.

       -d directory, --directory=directory
              Check the files in the specified directory instead of  the  cur-
              rent directory.

       -m mimetype, --mimetype=mimetype
              Add mimetype to list of white-listed MIME types.

       -e extension, --extension=extension
              Add extension to list of white-listed extensions.
