# -P- The patch command

    From: -XI- Where can I get these packages?

    The patch command is used to apply updates to a source package.  It
    assumes that you have the previous version of the source package in
    an uncompressed format as well as a file containing one or more modifications
    to make.

    One very popular version of the patch command is the one currently a part of
    the project GNU archives.  One place to being looking for these is
    <URL:ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu/.  If this site has too many users, it's
    messages tell you some alternative sites to try.
