I am trying to apply level one of the patches. I am using patch on a Sun 4. Unfortunately the program "patch" does not seem to cope with the multiple files in there, or, more likely, I am doing something completely wrong. Can someone help a dummy out !!!! (I tried patch <filename> -{lots of variations of options}) to no avail. Do I have to edit the patchfile into separate files for each patch? On a different note, does anyone know what the -W option does in gcc? I am trying to compile tinymud, and our gcc does not understand it. Thanks, Simon Michnowicz *************************************************************************** Simon Michnowicz | Switching Section | Telecom Australia | Research Laboratories | "We Do It To Bits In Packets" Phone: Wk (03) 541 6476 | Hm No Fixed Abode | ACSNET simon@shiva.trl.oz | *************************************************************************** *************************************************************************** Simon Michnowicz | Switching Section | Telecom Australia |

I tried this also and it wouldn't work. I got it to work by using patch < filename make sure the patch file is in the top directory of castle. Steve Misrack steve@ucsd.edu
