Please don't top-post on this list.
Also, that's not the right patch syntax. It's
patch < diff-file
(the patch should have the source file to which it applies already embedded in
the patch)
If the file name isn't embedded, then you can do it as
patch orig.file diff-file
but never redirect *out* of patch.
