Alternatively, you can also open the tkremind program with your favourite text editor and edit it yourself to apply the changes you see in the patch file. Lines in the patch file starting with '+' are to be added, lines starting with '-' are to be deleted. Without the leading +/-, of course. The patch only adds two lines to a procedure called SetFonts later than line 2922, so that will be easy to do with an editor, too. Reading up on how to use "patch" is highly recommended, though, for anyone who wants to apply larger patch files. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
