Since a recent posting I saw about Patch up to patchlevel #9, I find we are
way behind . . . somewhere around #4

I would also like to have the MOST RECENT version . . . problem is if you miss
one of the past patches to Patch, you're stuck at the level where you are!

There are two ways to get "patch".  One is to get it from mod.sources
archives (now comp.sources.unix.)  The other is to send mail to Larry
Wall in a format that will make his automatic software distribution
program send you what you want.  Currently available are patch, rn, and
other things.  Here's a copy of the trailer from an "rn" distribution:

	Larry Wall
	{allegra,burdvax,cbosgd,hplabs,ihnp4,sdcsvax}!sdcrdcf!lwall

	If you send a mail message of the following form it will greatly speed
	processing:

	Subject: Command
	@SH mailpatch PATH rn 4.3 LIST
		   ^
		   notice the c

	where PATH is a return path FROM ME TO YOU in bang notation, and LIST
	is a list of one or more patches you need, separated by spaces, commas
	and/or hyphens.  Saying n- will give you everything from n on up.

those who want a copy of 'patch' may obtain it by return mail
from me.  it seems to get posted fairly often, but life w/o
it is so hard that you shouldn't have to wait.  i have what i
believe to be larry's latest release.  if someone closer is willing
to send it, by all means use that source.  decvax is a fairly short
path, but the pic machine may be pretty far...

Can someone point me to (or better yet, send me) sources for the most
current version of the patch program.

Thanks,
BOB

You can get the latest usenet-posted sources for patch from
rpp386 in Dallas, TX

Hope this helps!

Hi;

	I am new to the net.  I can use ftp.  I have been seeing information
	about all of these neet programs, so I ftp'ed some of them.  They
	all have patches.  Some of them have automated patch installation,
	using a patch program.  I do not have such a program.  Please some one
	send me the program, with instructions on how to unpack it or tell
	me where I can find it on the net.  e-mail responses to
	bel@belunix.nosc.mil would be better than resonces to the news groups.

	Thanks bel
