According to the GNU General Public License version 3.0 and freedom number four i can change this code and share the changes. Right?

The only restriction would be to make it also under the GPL Licence.

Can someone give me an example of a compact header to use for this purpose.

On the other hand, tell me please if i am reading this worng.

Thanks
