There has been numerous patches of the IBM Basic Compiler V 1.00 available
from bulletin boards but I was never able make them to work when patched
at the same time.
On Dec.8, 1983 I received official letter from IBM including 25 pages of
patches and ways to get around different problems with BASIC Compiler.
These patches include all earlier known patches (fixed) and some more.
Since there is no way I would even attempt to type those on disk I have
patched my compiler with all given patches and extensively tested those out
by compiling several large and complicated programs and so far everything
works fine.
I have created three patch files which include all patches.
You will need the following files to be able to apply all patches:
BASCOM TXT 1462 This file
BASCOM PAT 470 for BASCOM.COM
BASRUN PAT 1648 for BASRUN.EXE
BASLIB PAT 996 for BASCOM.LIB
BASCOM COM 41600 5-07-82 12:00p Original
BASRUN EXE 31744 5-07-82 12:00p unpatched
BASCOM LIB 103936 5-07-82 12:00p files
PATCHER BAS 2244 Patcher program
The copies of those 25 pages are also available to SYSOP's when you send
me self addressed envelope (9" x 12") with $1.10 stamps on it. I am
afraid to offer those to everybody since I might end up purchasing a Xerox
machine for myself if I get too many inquiries.

** NOTE ** I observed different .PAT file sizes than what is indicated above.
I applied the patches anyway and the resulting files (BASCOM.COM ...) WERE
the indicated "patched" size - and a test compile did work.
