README

# README from Bell-labs
#
This directory contains updates to the files contained on the
Plan 9 distribution CD. The updates are in the form of self-extracting
bundles of diffs with respect to the distribution source.
See rc/boddle.man.

# README  by Kenar (Kenji Arisawa)

Update files are organized as follows:
[1] Files *.rc are called boddle. They are self-extracting.
For example, files in libfb are:
	836402968.rc	836403518.rc	cmap.tar
You can extract files in 836403518.rc by:
	term% rc 836403518.rc -X
Then you can find extracted files in the created directory 836403518.
They are new files that are fiexed.
[2] The number 836403518 denotes the date and time 836403518.rc is created, and therefore 836403518.rc is newer than 836402968.rc.
It seems that newer file contains all the contents in the older file.
Except very special cases, older files will be needless for you.
[3] In extracting, boddle file refers original source.
The default location of original sources are under the directory /syc/src.
Therefore you are wise not to touch the files under /sys/src.
