I would like to move a file of the port, located in the 'files/' directory. Basically the file now is called netdisco.sh.in and I would like to call it netdisco.in. If I use a normal 'diff -ruN' command to generate the patch, after I apply the patch the new file is created but the old file (netdisco.sh.in) is still there, with zero size. I wonder if I should generate a shar archive for this port instead of a patch. Sorry if this question is so simple. Bye Valerio Daelli
