SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

     copyheadinserts a  standard  disclaimer  into  your  current
     directory  for  files  with  the  extensions .h .H .c .cc .C
     .cpp. These files are renamed to  ".hc~filename~"  .  A  new
     file  with  name  filename is created and the disclaimer and
     the content of the file .hc~filename~ is  appended  to  this
     new  file. The temporary file is not deleted but overwritten
     by subsequent calls to copyhead.

     The entries for the real name of the author are  taken  from
     the  passwd's gecos field. The mailadress, date, time, host-
     name and domainname are determined by unix system calls. The
     mailadress  can  be  determined  by the environment variable
     MAIL_ADRESS alternativly. The name of the  organization  and
     its  abbreviation is compiled in and defaults to "Max Planck
     Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience" and "M.P.I.".
