Thanks Bob, and Raino for your answers. Regarding "monk", can I invoke "monk" from command line.

In the soon to be released (hopefully next couple of weeks) version 2.6.0, the license viewer will highlight the snippets that nomos matches. So you will be able to see why nomos thinks a license is what it says. This contribution is from our friends at Siemens and TNGTech. They have also contributed a new license scanner (monk) that complements nomos. While nomos looks for license signatures, monk looks for full licenses (from the license_ref table). This way monk can give you greater confidence in the license determination, but it only finds a small subset of the licenses because full licenses are not given that often.

They are -style licenses because there is no full match with the license text available in f.ex. opensource.org<http://opensource.org/>. The only way to get understanding how nomos detects BSD-style licenses is to take a look in STRINGS.in file and parse.c if you are really interested.

I searched spdx.org<http://spdx.org/>, or opensourc.org<http://opensourc.org/>, I could not find it. Specifically I would like to see the license text for all the licenses listed in 2.6.0 http://www.fossology.org/attachments/3963/license_list_2.6.0.txt Is there single website which shows all license text?
