[net.micro.amiga] Manx 1.2 patch that was posted

jdg@elmgate.UUCP (Jeff Gortatowsky) (07/09/86)

I tried the patch posted here from a fella that had talked with Manx over
the phone, on patching cc and make for Kickstart 1.2.  It didn't work for
me.  Maybe others will have better luck.

It worked for me fine... I compiled the patch program under 1.1 and ran
it under 1.2.  I did encounter a few wierd problems, like "Exec failure"
but that turned out to be a problem with 1.2 Paths and where I had c:
assigned.  If this is your problem, then your patch did work, you should
try playing around with your environment. Hope this helps.

I'm the one that posted the Manx patch and hadn't tried it at the time; however,
I've tried it since then and it worked.  One possible problem is with the
"\X" field... that may have to be "\x"... at least that is what I used when
I finally tried it and it worked.

		Up -n- running on 1.2!
