PATCHY and the associated auxiliary programs serve in development, maintenance, and inter-computer transport of source programs. Suitably structured source files containing several versions of a given program permit code selection and code modification (down to single-statement-level) by simple control cards to YPATCHY. Compacting and structuring of card files for efficiency (YTOBIN), maintenance of compacted files at the deck level (YEDIT), creation of machine-independent, transportable files (YTOCETA) and listing of compacted files (YLIST) and others are simple auxiliary operations in this environment.

Structure:

Complete programs; executable modules exist on all machines at CERN where the CERN Program Library is installed, normally in the directory /cern/pro/bin.
User Entry Names:
YPATCHY, YEDIT, YTOBIN, YTOBCD, YLIST, YTOCETA, YFRCETA, YCOMPAR,
YSEARCH, YSHIFT

Usage:

See Long Write-up (PATCHY Reference Manual).
