I intended to have the utility that extracted the source package invoke patch automaticaly with the DELTA file as input. If you need an arbitrarily complicated "patch" run, you can have the extraction script do that instead of having the DELTA component be a script as well. If you want DELTA to be a no-op, make it empty. Bruce -- See Pixar's "Toy Story", at a theater near you starting November 22. "Toy Story" Soundtrack - Available now at a record shop near you!
