I always do it by keeping '.orig' versions of the files and then diffing
those against the newer versions. That way you get a patch that applies
just like the man page says (i.e. 'patch < diff') and it just works. The
downside is that you have to remember to make a .orig version of
a file  before you start editing it.

-bat.
