I've made some changes to xbiff, such as the ability to play audio files instead of that boring beep, the ability to fork off your mail program, and XPM support. I would like to contribute these, so I need to make a patch. I've checked the FAQ and couldn't find it, though its probably somewhere. I read patch(1) and skimmed diff(1), diff3(1), cmp(1), sdiff(1) but I couldn't find anything. Thanks in advance for any help, Matt Kiser
