Always use `diff -c' to make patches.  If you use plain diff, I will
not be able to tell where you want to make the changes.

If I had an extra twenty minutes to spend, I might be able to figure
out which lines you were trying to change.  But I don't have an extra
twenty minutes.  I can hardly keep up.
