PatchControl V2.0
(C) Copyright 1994-1995 by ALiENDESiGN
Introduction:
------------
Do you know the problem: a program cannot be removed, because it can't remove
there patches (such as MCP when you save the prefs). This program will solve
all problems with systempatches. All programs can remove there patches at
every time. It's fully compatible to the Setman program.
Difference between Setman and PatchControl:
------------------------------------------
Without Setman or PatchControl only the last program that patches a vector
can remove itself. All programs (like MCP) that support Setman can always be
removed. But there are programs (like Snoopy or Enforcer) that doesn't support
Setman can not be removed. This means that programs without a Setman-support
can never be removed. PatchControl will solve this problem.
Installation:
------------
Start it right after Setpatch in your startup-sequence.
For example:
C:SetPatch QUIET
C:PatchControl
.... all other calls follow here
Usage:
------
In the commandline you can select tasknames after PatchControl. These tasks
will include there patches before all other programs. It's very useful for
ARQ or similar programs. Example for ARQ:
C:PatchControl ARQ
The tasknames are noncasesensitive and wildcards are supported.
For programmers:
--------------
It's very easy to use. Make Findport() "SetMan". If the "SetMan" port exists,
remove the patches (with SetFunction()) without checking. PatchControl will
do the rest.
Developers:
----------
Look into the the patch.resource autodoc. It will give you all control over
patches.
