[DGD]Compiling/Patches

Hmmm - for this version of patch -p appears to be the number of letters to
strip from file names:

  -p NUM  --strip=NUM  Strip NUM leading components from file names.

Maybe the version with Cygwin is somewhat different?  I'll keep playing
around with it and see what I can figure out.  It is nice to have the
patched version already available, but I'd still like to get this working to
make it easier to apply future patches and packages.

Thanks again,

Zor

It should certainly be "patch -p" because some patches create new
files.  Perhaps that will also allow things to work normally with
Cygwin patch?  I am just guessing, having never run patch but on a
Unix system.

I placed the DGD sources with all stable patches up to 1.1p8 at

    ftp://ftp.imaginary.com/pub/LPC/servers/DGD/dgd-1.1p8.tar.gz
