All it needs is a proper copyright notice. It's dangerous, which is why it isn't in the tree. It either needs to not grab the server or it shouldn't dump to stdout while it's grabbed. If you don't grab, the app might crash if resources disappear while it's running. If you print out stuff while grabbed, the terminal and app may deadlock when the terminal tries to display the stdout. Mark. > > > Be careful running it though.
