Since I haven't seen this answered in any FAQ (no flames if it is and I didn't
find it!), nor is it explained in the patch files I've seen, I'm asking
it here...

Basically: How do you apply a patch file in SunOS?

I've used a 'patch' program before under several flavors of Unix (AT&T based),
but haven't been able to find an equivalent program under SunOS. Is there one?
Is there some other method of applying patch files?

I did find the sources to a "patch" program, but it has about a dozen patches
that need to be applied to it! Funny, isn't it? Is there another program or 
set of sources available?

Thanks in advance...
