        PATCH allows viewing and modification of disk files and memory. The 
        program displays the contents of a file, 256 bytes at a time, and 
        allows you to move around in the file, modify its contents, cancel 
        modifications, and search through the file for specified strings. The 
        contents of the file are displayed in both ASCII and hexadecimal, and 
        searches and modifications may be made in either format.
