PATCH for WideScreen0.5 utility The included diff files will patch the WideScreen 0.5 utility written by Michael D. Marchionna. Version 0.5 of widescreen does not operate correctly under version 3.0 of NextStep. Specifically the "sticky dock", "retrieve dock", and "return dock" options do not work. This patch fixes that. The original author forbids distributing modifications to his code without his permission, but he does allow individuals to modify and use his source code, which is why you won't find modified code here. In order top use this patch you must get the source for WideScreen0.5 from either sonata.cc.purdue.edu or cs.orst.edu. Once you have the source uncompressed and untarred, copy the diff files to the directory with the source in it and execute the following commands: "patch VdtView.m VdtView0_5.diffs" "patch VdtWindow.m VdtWindow0_5.diffs" This should apply the patch files. Once this is complete, use the Project Builder app to recompile WideScreen utility. (double click on the IB.proj file and click in the builder icon) This is version 1.1 of the WideScreen patch. The previous version mistakenly disabled the resizable option. This patch must be applied to the original source, not to previous patched versions. -Good luck Larry Roberts 8450lsr@indy.navy.mil
