  • Whatever happened to the custom_os patch?

    From rj@21:1/5 to All on Sun Dec 3 13:22:46 2023
    I don't know who wrote it or where it came from, but I used to used to be
    able to:

    *set custom_os "Ubuntu 22.04 Jammy Jellyfish"*

    in my .slrnrc. Is there any sort of current-day equivalent patch like
    this?

    Well that is actually my patch, that I wrote with some significant
    assistance from Jeroen van Nieuwenhuizen and Thomas Wiegner. It can be
    found here:

    It has made my day to see somebody asking for it :)
