This is the info file to "patchstr" (PatchSTRing):
-----------------------------------------------------

During the collection of ServerView-infos the SVlist... command is used.
It uses snmp, but is unable to retrieve the correct community from /etc/. Therefor it 
uses its own SV..ini file instead, which holds "public" as community by default (most 
users/admins never customize this file).
Unfortunately the location of SVlist....ini is code-fixed. And because sysdoc will not 
change anything outside /tmp on your system, the SVlist...command has to be patched
after it has been copied to /tmp.

This is the purpose of "patchstr". 
(I could not find a std-comand to patch binary filesi reliable)

The binary (staticly linked; needs no libs) "patchstr" is stored under /usr/sbin, while the 
source could be found under /usr/share/doc/packages/sysdoc (both are installed w/ sysdoc)

Usage: patchstr <file> <str-from> [<str-to>]

       (patched result goes to STDOUT; "patchstr" is licensed under GPL V2.0)
       (intended to be used on binary files it also can work on ordinary text files, to ;-)

A separate version can be found soon at: http://www.sysdoc.de
