Patch information for MacWorks Plus 1.0.18... There are no guarantees, use this information at your own risk.
To apply the patches: a) In (a copy of) the MacWorks Plus Installer, use Fedit or an equivalent and look in the DATA fork to search for the "find" data (in hex), and replace with the data shown. b) Use the modified installer to 'Update MacWorks' on your parallel port hard disk, and restart to load it. Notes: - All of these patches only occur once; the find data is unique - If you can't locate one or more of the "find" data sequences, perhaps your copy is already (or partially) patched; search for the data-as-patched to confirm. Some application's search functions require that you reset the edit point to the first sector in order to search the whole file. - If you are using an LSAC or QuickBoot, apply the patches to the MW+ file in your System folder (make a backup first) - These patches do not apply to MacWorks Plus II (it already includes these and many other bug fixes) 1) This patch is for the "extra line feed per page" bug in MacWorks Plus.
