* Does WMBiff have a mailing list?

There is no longer a WMBiff-specific mailing list, but it may be discussed
on the Window Maker Developers mailing list, wmaker-dev@lists.windowmaker.org.

* I added a feature to WMBiff. How do I submit a patch?
** If you've modified code from a .tar.gz
If you've modified a version of WMBiff downloaded from the web:
(in the wmbiff-x.x.x/wmbiff directory)
make indent
cd ..
make distclean
cd ..
mv wmbiff-x.x.x wmbiff-changed
tar xvfz wmbiff-x.x.x.tar.gz
diff --unified --recursive --new-file wmbiff-x.x.x wmbiff-changed > my-patch
** If you've modified code from CVS
(in the wmbiff/wmbiff directory)
make indent
cd ..
[ optionally 'make distcheck' ]
make maintainer-clean
cvs update -d
[ resolve any conflicts ]
cvs diff -u | less [ make sure the differences are roughly correct ]
cd ..
mv wmbiff wmbiff-changed
[ now checkout a new copy of wmbiff ]
diff --unified --recursive --new-file --exclude CVS wmbiff wmbiff-changed > my-patch
** Sending the patch
Submit my-patch as an attachment to mail sent to
wmbiff-devel. Don't forget to subscribe to the mailing list
so that we can discuss your patch. This is roughly the same
procedure you'll use to submit patches to any code, although
others may not have the 'make indent' step.
Submit patches in the same way as you would patches for Window Maker. See:
http://repo.or.cz/w/wmaker-crm.git/blob/HEAD:/The-perfect-Window-Maker-patch.txt
