I'd like to help (I have Patch @ patchlevel 12), but whats the use of sending
it to 'nobody'.

Please, if your going to request help, include a signature line(s) with your
name and e-mail address.  Don't expect postings 'path' line to do the job for
you.

  I'm pretty new to Unix/Xenix and I'm getting pretty frustrated
in that I would like to compile some of the great programs I've seen
in different areas of the net (via the Portal(tm) system), but I
can't seem to get my hands on a PATCH program anywhere.  I am using
a system that has SCO Xenix 2.3.2 installed on it.  Can someone send
me a PATCH program to set me straight?

I'm relatively new to the net, so forgive me if I've done something
incorrectly.

Hi.  Does anyone have the source code for patch?  My machines do not
have it, and as such, I cannot apply patches or upgrades.  Please point
me in the direction of an anonymous ftp site, and I will greatly
appreciate it.


Thanks,

  Uunet.uu.net has it in the comp.sources.unix archives in the directory
/comp.sources.unix/volume7/patch2.

  Uunet is a good place to start when you're looking for software.  Ftp to it
and retrieve ls-ltR.Z, which is a list of all the files in the archive.  Or,
get the "index" file from the /comp.sources.unix directory.

  Or, telnet to quiche.cs.mcgill.ca, log in as "archie," and type "prog patch"
when you get a prompt.  Of course, you're going to get a lot of superfluous
entries this way, so you might want to script the telnet output and look
through it in an editor to find the relevant entries.

  The point I'm trying to make, if it isn't obvious :-), is that there are a
lot of places and ways to look for source code before posting a request to the
net.  I'm posting this message instead of E-mailing it because I think it's
useful to point this out on the net.

Yes, but not all those places and ways are accessible to everyone. 
Unless the guy in question has an account on a machine on the Internet
(and one that lets him have access *to* the Internet), he can't just
"ftp to [uunet] and retrieve ls-ltR.Z" or "telnet to
quiche.cs.mcgill.ca".  He may have to use UUCP to get stuff from
"uunet", which would require that he be on a site that's a UUNET
customer or that the site be willing to use the UUNET 900 number, or may
have to order the UUNET archive tapes.

There *do* exist anonymous UUCP archives, but as somebody working at a
UUNET customer I haven't really paid attention to them....
