Applying patch in Linux

[Stephan]

Hello,
I understand that this is not the right message board for
question like mine, but I did not have enough time to search
for any other boards.
EduOS "Unstable" releases are published in patch.gz form. My
question is how do I use them in Linux? Please help, I am
not new to programming, but I am very new to Linux.
Thanks in advance.

Just use gunzip to extract the file then use your OS patch
utility.
I don't use Linux myself buy there should be a "patchadd" or
possible a "patch" command.
Try a keyword man page search "man -k patch"

[Thanks, it worked.]
