I am not familiar with the patch procedures used in the Pcomm source I
downloaded from a local bbs. It is my understanding that it came from
a gentleman named Emmet P. Gray at Fort Hood, Texas. The source 
included 5 patches named patch1-patch5. It appears as if there is a 
program to install these patches into the source code, but I have no idea
where or what it is. The files are basically of the format:
*** old/sourcefile.c     Thu Sep 22 11:31:04 1988
--- sourcefile.c   Sun Oct 2 12:24:03 1988
*****************
***30,34

old program stuff

---30,34 ------

new program stuff

The patches would be nice to include when I compile this program. Any help
would be greatly appreciated.
