Re: [orca-list] Patching Orca

Yeah that got all worked out.  I'm long past that now.  Thanks anyway.  I
haven't used patch a whole lot so forgot about the various ways one could
invoke it.  I did realize a single patch could update multiple files however
and that's why I thought one could just specify the input file name without
any special parameters or redirection.
