license

Places a LICENSE in the current directory.

Usage

$ license apache-2.0 

or

$ license mit 2015 FooBar Inc.

See also man license.

Recommended Usage

Set the environment variable LICENSE_OWNER with your name in your shell's start-up script (i.e., ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc or what-have-you):

export LICENSE_OWNER='Insert your name here!'

And in every new shell thereafter:

$ license isc

The LICENSE file will automatically replace the year and name with the current year and LICENSE_OWNER, respectively.
