Ah, come on, give me a break, this is the first time I've done this.
I said I'm going to have to do it on-line on the Website, which means
using a browser. I know how to include a file in vi, but doesn't send-pr
use sendmail? which I haven't got installed. My only concern is that if
I enter the diffs by copying & pasting then the TABS will be converted
to spaces so the patches won't work (without the ``-l'' option).
