New enhancements were included in PATCH/iX [B.01.02] which has a few changes in the screen as shown:

  1. If a PowerPatch is involved in the installation which contains FOS Enhancement patches, then a dialog shown below prompts the user in the Patch Qualification screen.

    +-----------------------------------------------------------------+| This PowerPatch tape contains FOS enhancements as well as fixes.|  | The default for Patch/iX is not to install these enhancements.  ||                                                                 |  
    | Would you like them to be installed (Y/N)?                      |+-----------------------------------------------------------------+

    Respond 'Y' to install all 'FOS Enhancements' or 'N' to not install the FOS Enhancements. If you wish to install only one or more specific FOS enhancement patches, then respond 'N' to the above prompt and force the patches manually. Note that you will still need to force any patches for purchasable products.

  2. A new activities menu item '[ ] Adding Reactive Patches from Download' has been added to allow the installation of download patches without any customization. The menu item is as shown:
