$VER: Patch'Em_Manual v1.0 (12-Feb-93)
======================================
COPYRIGHT
MakePatch and Patch'Em are released under the concept of public domain.
The source code in assembly language is included, so feel free to change
these tools and to add useful features.
WHAT IS IT
With Patch'Em you can use the MakePatch-generated patchfiles to do the
actual patching. (Please consult MakePatch.doc for further info!)
INSTALLATION
First of all you have to copy the PTool.Library into your "LIBS:"-
directory or MakePatch won't do anything. (If you already have
PTool.Library installed in your system, use the version-command to find out
which version is newer!)
Then you should copy MakePatch itself somewhere into your commandpath,
usually "C:".
USAGE
MakePatch gets all needed information throu' the commandline. If you
call it with "?" as parameter, you'll get the well-known usage template.
MakePatch recognizes the following keywords:
Original/A - This is the path and name of the last version of the
to-be-patched file. This parameter must be provided.
NewVersion/A - Here you can (must) specify the name, the generated new
version should be saved under.
PatchFile - This are path and name of the patchfile containing the
changes. This parameter must be provided.
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
MakePatch works only under Kickstart V37.xxx or later. Additionally the
PTool.Library is required.
