Binaries? The gnu version of patch deals with text files. I
guess if you're on an hp, it'll default to the system 'patch' which _is_ a
binary program. I don't think this is the case though, as the patch (as
you indicate) actually started.
Hm. I've not seen malformed patch errors in a while. What I
suggest you do is go to the developer.circlemud.org site, an read the
listing about 'how to patch by hand'. It's there somewhere. Then, run
through your patch step by step. It's a good way - and the only reliable
way to add the contents of a patch in. Especially if you're attempting to
patch something made for a different bpl.
