Can someone email or post a PD patch program for Unix SYS V. Thanks in advance.

Could somebody please give the complete publication info of "The Book". Excuse my ignorance, I'm new to this group. When I ask for "The Book" at a bookstore they send me to the Bible section. Thanks.

So many people have asked for patch that I've decided to do
something about it. Those who have access to a machine that can
do UUCP transfers can get patch from me. Call for details. (I'm
in from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, eastern time.)
What you will need:
A computer that can do UUCP.
A 1200 or 2400 baud modem. I can't talk at 300.
Willingness to pay phone costs for 117k. This
will be about 10 minutes at 2400 baud.
Patch is a product of Larry Wall, who has 'copylefted' it.
Anyone who has it is free to redistribute it for non-commercial
use. If you get it from me, please do distribute it to the other
Minix users in your area. My version has all patches up through 8
applied. I am not aware of any later patches to patch.
Sorry, but diff is covered by the AT&T license. I don't know
of a copylefted or PD diff. Perhaps someone at Project GNU has
one?
