        <title>DESCRIPTION</title>

        <para>The regpatch utility applies registry patches to Windows registry 
                files. The patch files should have the same format as is being used  
                by the regdiff utility and regedit32.exe from Windows.</para>

        <para>If no patch file is specified on the command line, 
                regpatch attempts to read it from standard input.</para>
