Patch is not working

[Maarten Th. Mulders]

Hello all,

I have had the same problem. If I remember well, the point was that the
patches are saved in MS text format (so with an ASCII-13 and an ASCII-10
at the end of each line). Converting them to Unix text format solved the
problem.

Regards,

Maarten Th. Mulders
