"If you are accessing the CVS repository at gcc.gnu.org, use "cvs update; cvs diff -c3p"; else, use "diff -c3p OLD NEW" or "diff -up OLD NEW". If your version of diff does not support these options, then get the latest version of GNU diff. Patches against current development (mainline CVS) are preferred to patches against releases, unless your patch is intended as a candidate for the release branch."
At any rate, doc patches are appreciated, and you may want to consider sending a group of them (instead of one email per file changed) since they are all related. Also, don't forget Changelog entries. Welcome to Classpath hacking!

Hi,
I was idly browsing the Applet.java code and found a slight discrepancy.
Please find attached the file 'diff', which is the result of diff <original Applet.java> <my Applet.java>, and the file 'diff_minus_u', which is the result of diff -u <original Applet.java> <my Applet.java> and please let me know whether you prefer diff or diff -u for patches.
Regards,
Ricky.
