Make Update and Update are a set of applications to update an older version of
a file (or files) to a newer version. They work by finding just the differences
between the two versions and applying those differences to the older version.
This is especially useful when you need to maintain common versions of large
files at remote locations and the differences between the two versions is small.
Another use is to "patch" files or applications -- that is, to provide updates
of files (e.g., applications) to current users without making the contents of
the entire files available others.
New in version 1.05 (MakeUpd5.Zip):
- Added ability to copy over any existing "old" file without
first verifying that it passes the CRC version checking. This
is equivalent to deleting the old file then adding the new one.
Since version 1.03 (MakeUpd3.Zip) can compile for 16-bit or 32-bit
environments, I have kept it available rather than replaced it entirely.
A compiler directive ensures that the 16-bit and 32-bit versions create and use
compatible "Update Files" at the cost of a slightly larger file.
