Description

Hello,

I usually scan components for myself with the Scancode to verify the licensing of the files.
And in most cases there are references to some licenses stated as See the license in the root or licensed under the content of the LICENSE file. So I created a license which detects all the "license" keywords in a component. And as you can imagine there are a lots of license hits in even in a small component. Is there a way to create a rule or modify the license entry in that way that the Scancode will detect 2-3 words after and before the "license" keyword and print them in the html report? It will help a lot in filtering the false "license" hits in the files content without the need of manual checking the files.

Thank you for your help.
