Pick a license, any license. 

Introduction
------------

This is my take on `GitHub's <http://github.com>`_ `Choosealicense.com <http://choosealicense.com>`_. 

I have used the data from `Choosealicense.com <http://choosealicense.com>`_ but the implementation has 2 key differences:

1. *Palal* is a CLI utility.

2. Unlike `Choosealicense.com <http://choosealicense.com>`_, *palal* is interactive. It will ask you a few questions and returns the top 3 licenses that match your criteria.

Usage
-----

Choosing a FOSS license is easier than ever before. Just run *palal* and type a number from **1** to **5** for each criterion - specifying how important you feel it is for your project. ::

    $ palal

    What should be forbidden by your license?
    
    Use Trademark (While this may be implicitly true of all licenses, 
    this license explicitly states that you may NOT use the names, logos, 
    or trademarks of contributors.) [0-5] > _

    ...

After the interactive session, you will be presented with the top 3 licenses that match your criteria along with instructions on how to use them. ::

    1) CC0 1.0 Universal [dist=39]

    The Creative Commons CC0 Public Domain Dedication waives copyright interest 
    in any a work you've created and dedicates it to the world-wide public domain.
    Use CC0 to opt out of copyright entirely and ensure your work has the widest 
    reach. As with the Unlicense and typical software licenses, CC0 disclaims 
    warranties. CC0 is very similar to the Unlicense.

    Create a text file (typically named LICENSE or LICENSE.txt) in the root of 
    your source code and copy the text of the CC0 into the file.
