- Well, as I said in my previous message, I'll include a conversion
- utility. I know it will be a pain in the ass to have to convert the
- files before using them, but I really do need to do this...I had a
- really nasty time with producing correct patches for PL26 and also
- with merging in Bammi's diffs. I will also include in each full
- release the diffs relative to the previous patchlevel, so that you
- really only need to do the conversion once.
-
- If someone is willing to provide me with source for versions of diff,
- patch, less, and jove that don't care what line terminator is used,
- I'll reconsider :-)
