Liang as part of his +Stanford Ph.D. work, and has always been distributed alongside the +other programs coming from the Stanford TeX project. It was updated in +1991 by Peter Breitenlohner for the new 8-bit features of TeX version 3. +(These updates related to input/output and programming overhead; the +actual pattern generation algorithms were not changed.) + +Patgen is currently maintained as part of TeX Live (https://tug.org/texlive). +Home page: https://ctan.org/pkg/patgen |
