File License Header Update

[fgrosse]

We need to agree on a file header. The current header is

For now, we could set the license header to.

 /*
  * $FU-Copyright$
  */

I've wrote a bash script which allows us to replace it in the end (I will add it to the repository later that day).

[fgrosse]

Great idea. Let's do this until we have a real license header

[fgrosse]

Could we just use your script to replace all the existing occurrences of the old header with the placeholder you proposed? Would be much better to replace all existing old license information in a single commit but I failed at writing my own replacement script :(

[mfrey]

I've added the script to the repository. The remaining "problem" is the we have two different comment blocks right now (one only with your name and one with both our names) which means the scripts needs to changed (which should be easy). Adding the long comment block in the search/replace part of the substitute command of sed might be a bit cumbersome.

[fgrosse]

Yeah that just looks like the script that I have written. I failed at integrating the long comment block because it spans multiple lines and contains characters that need to be escaped.

[fgrosse]

I just pushed my version of the script in the new license branch 21e6509. Maybe you can get it working?
