Description

  ABOUT

    It's merely a try to implement a patch that could group part of known
    patches for 68k Amigas, with some implemented by me.
    A sort of "all in one" patch.

  WHY

    I want my Amiga to be faster but I don't like to install tons of
    programs that patch my system and could interfere each other...
    So I started coding SystemPatch.

  USEFUL

    SystemPatch is intended to be useful on AGA systems.

    SystemPatch replaces some functions of the operating system with optimized
    ones, increasing the system efficiency in a multitasking environment.

    SystemPatch takes care of your CPU and installs appropriate patches.

    If you don't have OS3.5 or OS3.9, SystemPatch can fix some bugs in
    exec.library for you because the code of its patches takes care of known
    bugs of old execs.

    If you have FBlit running SystemPatch takes care of it, installing patches
    that require it and excluding patches that conflict with it.

  USELESS

    If you have a MMU and the mmu.library by Thomas Ritcher, SystemPatch can
    protect the code used by installed patches from being over-written( this is
    not true for quicklayers.library).

  FUTURE

    There are some speedups to quicklayers.library I've in mind but I lack the
    time to implement them.
