iPatch is an intuitive and easy to use patch-maker for Mac OS X.
iPatch is an utility which can compare the resources of two
applications and can produce a standalone patches to update an older
version of an application to a newer version.
Using iPatch you can create patches for your application with ease.

Additionally, iPatch enables you to distribute small-sized upgrades of
your application.
Main Features:

? It takes less than 5 min to create a patch. The patch has a small
size.

Mac OS 10.2.8 and 10.3.x.
Example: A 'blank' patch is 150 kb unstuffed. Compressed with StuffIt
7.0 (or newer), you obtain a 40 kb file.
If your application is about 1.5 Mb with a 1 Mb executable file, and
your new version has only a few changes, your patch will be about 210
kb unstuffed. Compressed with StuffIt 7.0, you obtain a 56 kb file !
If your application is 2.5 Mb with a 500 kb executable file, and your
new version has only a few changes, your patch will be about 200 kb
unstuffed. Compressed with StuffIt 7.0, you obtain a 45 ko file ! Of
course iPatch can replace, create or delete pictures, .icns or .nibs
that are contained within your application.
