I'm not sure how the system patches work, but I think there is some time after the initial coldstart when the system looks for a particular file that has patch info. Likely it would be in the L: directory, though perhaps it is initiated in startup-sequence. This code segment would get run and it would permanently allocate the required memory, then call SetFunction for each of the functions to be replaced. But that's just a guess. I 'spect it's documented somewhere in the auto-docs perhaps.

I haven't been able to locate anything specific, despite extensive searches of the autodocs and readme files. Never thought that maybe it would look for a specific file. Will dig out the old debugger and have a scan through the code for any likely looking names.
