[comp.sys.sgi] patch

rbriber@POLY1.NIST.GOV (04/11/91)

Is there a program equivilent to patch on (or available for) SGI machines.
I have a distribution that need me to patch the source (patch < diffs) and
the only thing I can find on our Iris called patch is a drawing command.

Thanks...

The patch program is available (through the GNU project) from prep.ai.mit.edu
in pub/gnu. It compiles with no problems on the Iris.

Hope this helps,
