Hello.

Below is the script I've started using to generate patches for DJGPP.
You give it a list file like this:

include/stdlib.h
src/libc/ansi/stdlib/foo.c

and it'll generate a patch for you. E.g.:

    listfile2diff.sh foo-files.txt -pu3

It copes with files that haven't been added to CVS yet.

Change 'mycvs' and 'nargs' to respectively: the name of your CVS program
(I use a bash shell script wrapper) and the number of filenames
to pass to CVS (I use two, to avoid command-line overflow).

Maybe it'll be useful for someone else.

Bye, Rich =]
