Hi!
Just a guess, I usually throw -p1 or more, not -p0? Could it be that?

Hello!
I am trying to apply a patch I made for myself. When I am running the patch(1) utility, I am always being asked to type in the file name to a file that needs to be patched. My diff file contains a diff on a few files, and this is my dialogue with the patch(1):
--- my quote start ---
>patch --ignore-whitespace -p0 -i US-GB.nohtml.diff
can't find file to patch at input line 2
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:
--------------------------
diff -b -B --exclude='*.*htm*' -r en-US/.jar/autoconfig/contents.rdfen-GB/.jar/autoconfig/contents.rdf
--------------------------
File to patch: en-GB/.jar/autoconfig/contents.rdf
patching file en-GB/.jar/autoconfig/contents.rdf
Perhaps your patch file is corrupt. Please post the first 10 lines of it.
Max.

I want to emphasise, that the line "diff ..." is the first one, though patch(1) is saying that it is the second one.
Cheers, Constantine.
