Hi all, First time poster to the lists!
Using dwm, loving the minimalism and it's forcing me to learn stuff the hard way which is all good. But I can't seem to figure out how to apply a patch to it. According to the instructions listed here: http://dwm.suckless.org/patches/ I figured I'm to use the "tarball method" as that's how ports fetches dwm. I tried applying the method to /usr/ports/x11-wm/dwm/work/dwm-5.9 but it didn't work (malformed patch). I've used ubuntu for about a year but for all intents and purposes I'm still a beginner with UNIX-like, and I've never used patch or diff before. But, I remembered that these are ports and wonder if these patches would work on FreeBSD source? Would I have to apply the patch to the tarball while it's in distfiles before it gets 'ported' to freebsd? Or am I talking crazy? Any help would be appreciated. andy _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
