I am absolutely new in all this and I don't know much of who thinks
work; I am just trying to be helpfull.

I know the patch is horrible, but someone sugested somethink like it
and I am just makeing sure I don't expend to much time in the wrong
direction.

I have a couple cuestions:

Would it be right to do the same with all platforms?

I know it is not done the nicest way, I need feedback and suggestions.
