Better said than what I said. Thanks Dan.

Re: [Xastir] interface control->networked agwpe->properties bug
Hello, If you have significant changes that cross multiple files, I would use: 'diff -urN ...' 'r' tells diff to recurse the tree, looking for changes. 'N' tells diff to pick up new files added to the tree. If you are using CVS, I also recommended adding to ~/.cvsrc: cvs -z3 checkout -P update -PAd diff -u This way, you don't have to worry about options anymore; They're automatic.

Re: [Xastir] interface control->networked agwpe->properties bug
Tom, Thanks for the tip on including diff's in email. "diff -u" it is. 73 from 807, Richard, N6NKO Tom Russo wrote: I would have sent the diff as an enclosure but i figured that is frowned upon. Well, the more troublesome thing is using old-style diff instead of unified diff --- it's harder to work with the old-style diff format when there's any version clash at all. Next time please use "diff -u" instead of just plain "diff" for maximum efficiency. ___ Xastir mailing list Xastir@xastir.org http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
