Hi All,
I am thinking of upgrading pine 3.91 to 3.92 but I am
not sure how to do it.
I asking if just overwritting the 3.91 version will be ok.
Or maybe is there a patch to upgrade it.
Any help will be appreciated.
thanks,

Firstly, note that the current version is now 3.93 (few/no new features,
just a few bug fixes that were reported following the release of 3.93).

Your best bet is to obtain a binary (if that's what you did before), or
the Pine source code kit (personally I prefer doing this) and recompiling
it.  You can get these via anonymous ftp from ftp.cac.washington.edu.

The "upgrade" installation then becomes simply replacing your pine
executable with that from the new version, and replacing its man page.
(Also replace any associated software you also install from the kit:
imapd, pico; also decide whether to put up the new "pilot" software too).

All done.

There isn't a patch kit (as far as I remember) to upgrade the previuous
source code kits to 3.93 (nor to 3.92).

Cheers,
