- >I thought you might like a copy. Since the original file was quite lengthy,

- >run the patch program.
- >I put the following into a file called flgpatch.txt:

- >The install program executed correctly afterwards.

- Note that there is also a patch available to correct the color
- palettes for Freelance running under OS/2 2.0. That patch should be
- available from the same site providing this file.
-
- This patch evidently applies only to the OS/2 1.x version of Lotus
- Freelance Graphics.
