Patch Safari

This patch will patch the iPhone/ iPod Touch safari browser to allow for viewing of local files using the file:// mechanism. Currently, if you attempt this, you get an error something like "Safari cannot open local files". After using this patch, you can open local files with safari. This includes all local file types supported such as: html, txt, doc, pdf and more.

To use this you will need to copy a file to your phone locally using either scp, a file download plugin or such. Lets say you copy a file to the /tmp dir called test.pdf. To read this with this patch you type into your browser: file:///tmp/test.pdf - thats it!. You can create a dir for local documents and a bunch of bookamrks to access them also.
