lice-tddschn

Fork of Lice, original license.

lice-tddschn is made faster by not importing the large pkg_resources module.

Lice generates license files. No more hunting down licenses from other projects.

If organization is not specified, lice will first attempt to use git config to find your name. If not found, it will use the value of the $USER environment variable. If the project name is not specified, the name of the current directory is used. Year will default to the current year.

You can see what variables are available to you for any of the licenses:

$ lice --vars mit
The mit license template contains the following variables:
  year
  organization

I want XXXXXXXXX license in here!

Great! Is it a license that is commonly used? If so, open an issue or, if you are feeling generous, fork and submit a pull request.
