in reply to OpenBSD's patch

Does anyone have patch and not man?
$res = qx/man patch/; my $dry_option; $dry_option = '--dry-run' if($res =~ /--dry-run/); $dry_option = '--check' if($res =~ /--check/);

    There are systems that have multiple "patch" implementations installed. "man" will not always default the the right man page.
