Contributing to the mighty FOSS movement often means supplying
a source code patch.  Here is how to make a patch file:

diff -urB old-source new-source > file.patch

That's it!  Just create and modify a copy of the source code,
which can be a directory tree or a single file, and then run
the above command.

Warning!  Don't try this with Microshit Winblows.  You'll
have to validate your debit card several times over at the
Microshit store -- and that assumes that you can even find
the source!

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

Hail Linux!

Hail GNU and the FSF!

Hail Stallman!

Fuck Microshit and all the craven degenerates who support it!
