+Floating IPS (or Flips) is a patcher for IPS and BPS files, aiming for
+a simple interface yet plenty of power under the hood.
+
+Features:
+
+ * Creates the smallest BPS patches of any known tool in existence,
+ and is faster than any other comparable creator
+ * Creates the smallest IPS patches of any known tool in existence,
+ too (but only a little smaller, Lunar IPS is quite good)
+ * Fully-featured GUIs under Windows and GTK+, including command line
+ support; can also be a pure command line program
+ * Can apply multiple patches to the same ROM, creating a huge pile
+ of ROMs (GUI only)
+ * Can remembers which ROMs you've used, and use them again if it
+ thinks it's correct (BPS only, GUI only)
+ * Can launch other programs after patching the ROMs; together with
+ the above, this allows you to double click a BPS to launch an
+ emulator (GUI only)
