patches

A various collection of patches I wrote for fun. In general, they are supposed to be enhancements.

Usage

  1. Clone/download this repository
  2. Unpack/cd into the directory
  3. Apply the given patches to the projects they are for
$ patch -p1 < example.patch

About

gnu-coreutils/fold-cut-line-feature.patch: Adds '-c' as an option which cuts off a line at WIDTH (Example: -w80) instead of breaking up the line.
openbsd-src/sysctl: This patch adds the "-p" flag to sysctl. This makes reading/applying /etc/sysctl.conf on the fly possible.

Hacking

If you like to improve the given patches make sure you have run/tested them against the projects there are for.

Note

Don't supply these patches to the projects they are made for! (I in fact did so before)
They are only used for myself (or you) locally in the end.
