PATCHES
=======
This program works really well for me, but it might not have some of the
features that you want. If you would like, please extend the code and send
me the patch. Please use the context diff format. That is: save the
original program as stress.c.orig, then make and test your desired changes
to stress.c, then run `diff -u stress.c.orig stress.c' to produce a context
diff. Enjoy the program :-)
