I am looking for the patch program source to run on a Sun. Can someone send me a copy? Thanks. -- Stuart Brown {ihnp4,allegra}!bonnie!sdl!stu

Over a period of time, I was able to accumulate a number of programs that are used on some of our computers. I have also accumulated patch files for these programs. My problem is that it is such a nuisance to apply all the patches by hand. Since there is a program that performs the instalation of the changes, would someone have the source posted to the net. I ask for the posting since I have tried (and failed miserably) at sending email anywhere except my local site, and as such have not been able to get anything via 'anon ftp' or any other method. Maybe there should be a group that provides a list of programs that might be wanted, and accepts votes from users. Once a program receives enough votes showing enough interest, the program will be re-posted. If after a reasonable time (two months ?) and too few votes are posted, the program is removed from voting and replaced by others. (Hey, it's just an idea!!) -- ------------------------------------------------+--------------------- Maybe I shouldn't have done it, sarcasm is so | Joseph G. Toth Jr. seldom understood.
