Just got my Kobo and these patches are amazing.

Possibly stupid question:

After installing patches once, is there anything special I have to do to install patches again? ie. I would like to tweak some values. Can I simply go to my altered .patch files, change a couple values, and repatch?

Or do I have to revert to unpatched firmware before I re-patch?

I ask because the .patch files look like the patch might be searching for particular values on the Kobo, e.g. "replace (hex value,15,30)" is gonna replace 15px with 30px. So if I've already patched it to 30px, am I gonna break stuff if I now enter "replace (hex value,15,45)"?

Hopefully I'm overthinking this.
