Short: Clone of SAS binary file patcher Author: Stefan Haubenthal Uploader: aGGreSSor/CPU (amitrans narod ru) Type: dev/misc Version: 6.51 rel 4 Requires: ABIv0; i386; InstallerLG Architecture: i386-aros Distribution: aminet ============================== F E A T U R E S ============================== Spatch is a tool, that allows you to update an old version of any software to a better one. All you need is a Spatch executable program and a patch file (#?.pch) created by the developper of the updated software. - standard DOS template (space after option incompatibility) - message chunk support using iffparse - no window in shell mode anymore - different return code ============================ R E Q U I R E M E N T ========================== Spatch tested and apparently works on the following configurations: - IcarOS i386 (Kickstart 51.51, Workbench 40.0, AROS ABIv0) - AROS One i386 (Kickstart 51.51, Workbench 40.0, AROS ABIv0) Unfortunately I couldn't find suitable sources and patches to be completely sure. Scompare which creates patches doesn't exist in the open source, and there is a potential problem with Little-endian for i386, x86_64 CPU here. ================================= U S A G E ================================= spatch [-o= -p=] The following options are valid for spatch: -o - specify the name of the output file. -p - specify the name of the patchfile. ================================ S O U R C E ================================ aminet backport: http://aminet.net/package/dev/misc/spatch_os4 http://aminet.net/package/dev/misc/spatch Compiled for AROS by ______ ______ ______ ______ ______|:: .__|:: .__|_____ ______|:: ___|:: ___|______ _____ |: , |: | |: | |: ,_|: ,__|:___ |:___ |: - |: ,_| |__|___|______|______|___| _____|______|______|______|___| home cross-compilation factory
