When I click on the link in Wayne's original posting, I get a webpage with
link to the patch without even scrolling down the page:

https://writelog.com/ww-digi

P.S.  BTW, I'm not arguing this is straightforward.  It all stems from
changing the rules after they were first published.  WriteLog has done an
admirable job responding!

hi Ed - Fair enough but I started this thread by asking where the patch
was. *It was NOT on the page referenced.*

But I figured that since I was apparently the only one having an issue it
had to be something else.
