As you know, you should apply these patches with Larry Wall's patch program, which has been distributed on the X.V11R3 tape as well as on the X.V11R4 tape and via netnews. As the patches are all made from context diffs, you may specify the '-c' option to patch. You will also need the '-p' option to allow patch to understand the pathnames in the patch file. Thus, you should do this: (retrieve contrib/R4fixes/andrew/patch.007) cd (directory with andrew distribution) (thus, ./overhead and ./atk exist) patch -c -p < ../patch.007 Good luck.
