[comp.unix.questions] UUCP mods for news

mje@olsa99.UUCP (Mark J Elkins) (07/24/90)

I have just installed bnews2.11 Patch19. Looking in the 'uucp' directory
and reading the 'README' - I then tried to patch in the...

uux.minus.c 
	A mod to uux.c to support a uux -c option, e.g.
(Except my uux already has a different '-c' option)

=batch 
	Code to allow commands such as
	uux -c yoursys!rnews '<' =/usr/lib/news/batch_/usr/spool/batch/yoursys

both of which are extreamly desirable - but these patches are _old_
and I can't find half the places to patch.  The source I intend to
mutilate is from System V Release 3.2.  Could some kind soul please
MAIL me the diffs necessary?  (or mail me their name if they can do so
- and I'll contact _one_ of the volunteers after the floods of
replies)

Is there anything else I should be aware of in including this patch
(and how is one intended to use them???)
