Easy instructions for installing a patch?????

(1/3) > >>

UMT:
I've been dying to get a 'Pause Between Songs' patch for my Sansa C250 and someone finally made it.   I know where the patch is but I have absolutely no idea how to actually install it.

Are there any easy instructions somewhere that I could install this patch?  Can somebody post easy directions?   A little help here, friends!   

Thanks In Advance,
UMT

UMT:
Yes, I've read this and this was why I made the post. 

"Before you begin, be aware that this process can require a decent amount of time and technical knowledge and should not be attempted by a casual user, but rather by those intending to invest time in development." 

I am a fairly intelligent guy but I'm not a programmer.   Does this mean I'll never be able to install this patch on my Rockbox?   At this point, I don't know where to even start.   

Thanks,
UMT

No, but you will need to put quite some effort into it. You can't "install" a patch and if you're unfamiliar with it there is no "easy way".
