DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the GenPat command.

This manual page was written for the Debian (TM) distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. Instead, it has documentation in the HTML format; see below.

GenPat is a program that creates installer programs for Windows.

-B= 64

Set blocksize (default=64), multiple of 2 is required.

-V

-O

Deactivate match limit of the -A switch (sometimes smaller patches).
