Just for usefull info to me and maybe many others. I just want to know how it all works. Also, does anyone have a good link to "how to write patches for software" example xmms gcc4.patch Pretty much something that explains why/when/how you should create a clean patch and all. I'm currently reading/studying c programming and will hit c++ next. thx
