Gcompare generates patch files for the distribution of file updates.
Gpatch applies the patches.

The patch file can contain patches for any number of files.
The file format is optimized for size - the patch files are very short.
CRC error checking provides safe operations.
The programs work with any type of files.

Do not confuse these programs with GNU patch - they are ports of the
Amiga GPatch system.

The windows executables can help you transfer files across the
platforms.


Use the executables in the DOS box. For text output without control
sequences install ANSI.SYS. For a short description type "gcompare ?".
Please report any problems.

The manual folder contains HTML manuals in German and English, converted
from the original manual. Start with the file "main.html". 

For the original manual and Amiga executables look into the Aminet archive
ftp://wuarchive.wustl.edu/pub/aminet/util/misc/gpatch.lha
You can read AmigaGuide format with WinGuide:
ftp://wuarchive.wustl.edu/pub/aminet/misc/emu/winguide.lha

The windows executables are made using lcc-win32.
