Type:     util/boot
Requires: mathtrans.library

Long:

MTpatch 1.1beta © 1997-1998 Jess Sosnoski

DESCRIPTION:
-----------
This patches the mathtrans library's SPFieee and SPTieee functions to
slightly faster ones.

NOTE:
-----
THIS PROGRAM WILL NOT PATCH V43 MATHTRANS.LIBRARY
If you have tmathtrans.lha from aminet that I wrote (it's V43.x),
you won't need this, because that version of mathtrans.library
already has this code in it.


DISCLAIMER:
----------
Use this program at your own risk!
I assume no responsibility or liability for problem(s) and/or damage(s)
that occur by the use, modification, and/or existence of this product,
and/or its parts in any form.

 But if it don't work right, or slows things down, don't be afraid
 to send me email...or even send some email if it makes your system
 outprocess a cray (yeah, right)


INSTALLATION:
------------
Copy it to your c: directory or wherever you like.
You can add the line run <>NIL: msbpatch to your startup-sequence, or
user-startup.  You can give it an icon and put it in WBstartup.
You can basically put it anywhere :)
(I have mine a little after setpatch in my startup-sequence)

USAGE:
-----
run <>NIL: mtpatch

OUTPUT:
------
None...I'm not bothering putting that kind of work into this.
Although, if you don't have the right versions of the required libraries,
it will exit with a returncode of 20.

REMOVAL:
-------
sorry....once it's in...it stays in!
(didn't I hear Al Bundy say that to Peg once...hmmm....)

CAVEATS:
-------
Don't expect any miracles.

Opens mathtrans.library, and never closes it.

HISTORY:
-------
1.0	First Release

1.1	Now checks for my v43 mathtrans.library, and doesn't patch it
	if it's installed.  Although, it WILL patch the v100 quicktrans
	mathtrans.libraries, as well as the FMath406 mathtrans.library.

FUTURE:
------
Make this doc file a bit more presentable, and maybe leave it as plain
text without Amigaguide OR HTML just for kicks.
Write a more accurate test program, and maybe include it in the archive.

Make the patch exit, instead of hanging around.

One word: NitrOS

---------

BUGS:
----
Hmmm...what would Tom say, ohyeah, um....possibly.
But, I personally didn't find any...but if you do....email me :)
