If you scroll to the bottom of that page, there's a link for "Download in other formats: Original Format" -- the URL you want is actually <http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/raw-attachment/ticket/6447/trac_6447-canvas3d.patch>. > Is there a section in the documentation that tells about applying > patches, and related things? The only relevant section I could find <http://sagemath.org/doc/developer/producing_patches.html> describes the opposite of what you want to do. You might want to read the bit about branches though, if you're not familiar with that feature already. You should run "sage -clone canvas3d" to create a new branch and THEN import the patch, so you don't inadvertently modify the main, stable Sage branch.
