This seems to find the license only in the representative license file (ex- NOTICE, LICENSE.txt). Is that right?
At this time, it would be really nice to print copyright text in the file as an execution option.
Is there a way to do this?

Best regards

That is correct. In fact, askalono actively tries to throw out copyright data when identifying a license, as it helps with license matching and speed.

It would be possible to add a mode to preserve and extract copyrights, but a significant overhaul would be needed to some components. I'm open to the possibility.

Right now, if you want to extract copyright data, I recommend checking out https://github.com/nexB/scancode-toolkit.
