Supposing you have the directory AfterStep-xxxx/ which
contains the sources and the patches in the same directory
(like in /usr/local/src, for example):

	cd AfterStep-xxxx
	for i in ../1.7.142-* ; do zcat $i | patch -p1 ; done

or
	gunzip 1.7.142-*
	cd AfterStep-xxx
	patch -p1 < ../1.7.142-01-xxxxx.patch
	patch -p1 < ../1.7.142-02-xxxxx.patch
	etc

Do not forget to do 'make distclean' if you compiled
the sources before - this will get rid of the old makefiles,
obj files and so on.
