Hallo.

I use djgpp for the DOS/Windows3.1/(Windows95) of GenPatch part of my  
BinPatch project.

BinPatch is a software package to apply and generate very efficient  
patches. Now we all know that there are two ways to get 'djgpp' on your  
computer.

1. Download the binaries.
2. Download the source and compile it.

Well, I prefer the first, since I would rarely look at sources and if so,  
there would still be time to download it then. Now this takes a lot of  
time do get the archives through WWW as I usually do.

Now my question: Is there interest in optional patches for the binary  
versions of djgpp?

If so this could easily be done with BinPatch, since it easily handles  
directory structures and is free for non-commercial usage. As patching the  
djgpp binaries would be.

BTW: BinPatch is available for DOS/Windows3.1, Win95, Win NT, OS/2 and  
Linux. It can help a lot, if you do betatesting through mail.

Awaiting your opinions, mls, Kay Hayen
