- Quiet simple: a tool named patch understand all kind of diff output
- (simple diff, diff -e, or [you mean] diff -c, the context diff).

- So, there's a problem. Since i had holidays, i'm not up-to-date, and still
- running 0.0. Thus i don't know which lpt driver they included. But i posted
- one some weeks ago (which is okay on my 0.0), and since my name is included
- in the contributors' list, i guess, it could be my lpt driver.
-
- So try to be more detailed, and e-mail your report to me. I'll see what
- to do. Furthermore, i hope to upgrade to 0.1 as soon as possible. Please,
- refer only to the address in the signature (it's different from the sender
- address of this posting since i'm modem-logged-in here only).

- enjoy, J"org
