[cobalt-developers] bboard PKG about done, need help with diff



Didn't make it through, trying again... Sorry if this is duplicated.

I tested the install of the message board and it works!  Thanks to Taco for
helping me to use neomail as a foundation.

There's two steps I have to do before I can release, though.

First, I need to figure out how to make a patch file.  If I have two source
folders:
/tmp/bboard
/tmp/bboard.orig
and the first folder has the mods necessary to run on our Raq servers, how
do I run the diff command to get the output needed for the patch file?

I'm getting some output that I don't think is necessary.  I'm using:
cd /tmp
diff -r bboard.orig bboard

Thanks,
Matt Nuzum

P.S. the second step is for me to make arrangements with the author of the
bulliten board.  Once I announce the package, I expect it will generate a
little interest in the message board and we're afraid his website can't
handle it now.
