1) Take a file, say integer.spad.pamphlet 2) Edit the file and save the changed file as integer.spad.pamphlet.ralf 3) diff -Naur integer.spad.pamphlet integer.spad.pamphlet.ralf >integer.patch 4) cat integer.patch | mail -s "integer.patch" axiom-developer@nongnu.org When you receive a patch, you can say: 1) patch <integer.patch and it will change integer.spad.pamphlet to include the new changes. Since the original file is literate the patched file is literate.
