daveg@cit-vax.Caltech.Edu (David Gillespie) (06/27/90)
(The original version of this patch corresponded to a slightly older
"version 1.01" than was actually posted in comp.sources.misc. Sorry
about that... Here is a corrected version of that patch. -- Dave)
The following patches convert Calc version 1.01 into Calc
version 1.02. To apply them automatically with Patch v2.0,
first cd into your Calc distribution directory, then execute
"patch -p0 <calc.patch", where "calc.patch" is the name of this file.
You will want to re-byte-compile both parts, and re-format the
manual, as explained in the INSTALL file.
These patches do not cover the README and INSTALL files. The
INSTALL file is just a copy of the "Installation" chapter of
calc.texinfo, which is updated by this patch. Note that some
patches will add to the list of "autoload" commands recommended
in that chapter.
Patches and complete tar files are also available from anonymous FTP
on csvax.caltech.edu, in the "pub" subdirectory.
Enjoy!
