Thank you.  It is extremely close.  It doesn't quite allow me to take
out parts of the program and use it in "grep" if the original program
identified itself originally.  A possible rewording:

  2. If the Derived Work identifies itself to the user when run then
     it must clearly identify itself as a modified version of the
     original Work to the user when run.

This is similar to GPL 2c, which only requires notification if the
_modified_ program is interactive.
