Hey, I'll take a proper look at changes later but I'm fine for the library to update to MIT

Hi Brian, would you consider changing the license for this library? At the moment it's licensed under GPL v2.0, which I believe means projects that use the library cannot be distributed unless they are open source and also licensed under GPL v2.0.
I would recommend switching to the much more permissive MIT license https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT, or if you'd prefer to keep the copyleft provisions then I would recommend the Lesser General Public License (LGPL) https://opensource.org/licenses/LGPL-3.0. There should be no issue changing the license to either of those two, as both are more permissive than the current license.

Thanks for the quick response Brian. I'll try to put together a pull request with the license change in the next day or so.
Fixed in #33 , thanks
