p4d2p is a Perl script which performs in-place editing on the output of a previous 'p4 describe' command, to generate output suitable for patch(1). p4genpatch is a Perl script which wraps 'p4 describe' to generate such patches directly from the depot, when provided with a Perforce changelist number. Both utilities were written for development on Perl itself by Andreas Konig and Gurusamy Sarathy, and were modified for use with multiple Perforce depots by Simon Cozens.
