Fed 1.3 to 1.41 Patch
(20.08.1995)

Preface
=======
This archive contains a patch file for well known Commodore font editor
named FED. FED is is not brand-new product but some people (including
myself) still uses it. Program works and does what you expect, but
there are two annoying things in it: weird and completely useless
font requester (without any sign of sorting routines!) and no
shortcuts. During my work on W.F.M.H. LocalePL package I used FED very
often and one day I decided to improve it a bit to speed up my work.
Due of small amount of free time, I fixed only the second thing, the
shortcuts. I'll implement asl's font requester in the next release, if
someone will ask about this.
Installation
============
You need original FED version 1.3 to patch it to v1.41. Spatch is placed
in this archive and should be run as follow:
spatch -oFed1.41 -pFed.pch Fed
where: 'Fed1.41' is the result file contains new version of FED,
'Fed.pch' is the patch file,
'Fed' is the original version in executable form.
There's simplier way to patch FED. Just place original FED in the same
drawer the patch file is (and rename it to 'Fed') and type:
spatch Fed
and run the file named 'Fed.new'.
Disclaimer
==========
Bla, bla...oh, copy standard mumbo-jumbo here. It works...
but if you crash it is only your fault... :-)
spatch is © SAS Institute
FED is © Commodore Inc
Notes
=====
As you probably notices, CacheFont patch makes FED's font requester
hang. It still does, until I implement asl font requester here,
so turn it off before you attempt to read the font list.
