DESCRIPTION

	AlertPatch replaces the system exec.library/Alert() with
	two custom routines to give the user a choice of how the
	alert is to be displayed, either as an intuition window or
	a system alert with additional information.

FEATURES	

	1. Alerts now displayable as windows. With options to Continue,
	   Suspend or Reboot for all alert types.

	2. Displays description of alert and name of the offending task.

	3. Dumps contents of CPU data and address registers and displays
	   a text representation.

	4. Can list and get information on alert numbers from listview.

	5. Sound support through a sound daemon such as MSD or UPD.

	6. Multiuser filesystem support, displays name of the user
	   owning the offending task.

		* Arexx, Commodities and Locale support
