Hi Satoshi. I am trying to keep up with changes I'm making in a port I'm trying to develop, and so I'm using the info you gave me on diff. I'm having a strange problem, tho, and I hope you can help. The project I'm into uses imake, so one of the files is named site.def. The file occurs in the top project directory, and has to be changed, then deposited in the project config directory, several layers down. Patch keeps on insisting that, since it finds the file in the top directory, I must have made a mistake, so it patches it inthe top directory, and doesn't move it down. How can I force patch to believe I know what I want? ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include any kind of voice or data chuckr@eng.umd.edu | communications topic, C programming, and Unix. 7608 Topton St. | New Carrollton, MD 20784 | I run Journey2 (Freebsd 2.0) and n3lxx (301) 459-2316 | (FreeBSD 1.1.5.1) and am I happy! ----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
