 If you've modified a version of WMBiff downloaded from the web:

  (in the wmbiff-x.x.x/wmbiff directory)
 | 
					 | 
				
			||||||
  make indent

** 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
