When you apply a patch, everything that is NOT patched correctly ends up in the source dir with a file ending of .rej so just do an ls *.rej, then look at all of those files, there is what you have to patch manually and also in what files you have to do it, since the reject files get tha same name as the file they tried to patch. So a failed patch for comm.c is saved in comm.c.rej reg, Stefan (aka Slite) PhoneyMud IMP +-----------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://cspo.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list_faq.html | +-----------------------------------------------------------+
