where i put *.patch files?
The patch files go into the .autopatch folder. You can have several of them, as described in the first post. E.g. libnickel.so.1.0.0-something.patch and libnickel.so.1.0.0-other.patch. In theory you could give each independent patch its own file and just move the ones you don't want to disabled/.

If i put *.patch in disable/ the program disable the patch independent of the yes/no switch?
Yes, it will act as if the patch wasn't even there. You could just as well delete a patch file you don't want - but moving it instead gives you the ability to move it back at a later time.

Quote:
When the patch is applied the files remain in the same directory or it is move to avoid be repatched the next time?
Repatching is avoided by remembering the input and result of the last patch run. If you modify any of the patch files, they will be reapplied.

Edit: Is there some date to the next beta?
Right now I have a slight motivation problem with this mod; 1) there seems to be little interest/feedback, i.e. people seem to be happy patching externally as it were; 2) while I did a lot of patching on my last reader, I find I need considerably less patching than expected on the Kobo after all.

So right now I'm not sure if / when I'll find the time / motivation to make a new beta.
