- ; Make format bleep twice when finished:
- ; Execute as
- ; C:\DOS>patch22 @format.p22
- ;
- ;
- format.com *1?another (Y/N)\??another Y/N\?\x7\x7?
- ;
- ; this is achieved by replacing the text
- ; another (Y/N)?
- ; with
- ; another Y/N?bb (where b stands for the bleep)
- ; Note:
- ; - The new text must have the same length as the old text.
- ; (these are null-terminated strings, and the ending \0 must not be
- ; overwritten).
- ; - The bleep is \x7 (hexadecimal 7, which is decimal 7).
- ; - The ? character in the text is written as \?, otherwise it would
- ; have been interpreted as the end of the text.
- ; - Were the patched to be performed on the command line, it would
- ; have to be enclosed in double quotes, to make it into one string:
- ; C:\DOS>patch22 format.com "*1?another (Y/N)\??another Y/N\?\x7\x7?"
