Pay your dues, contribute!

If you've come up with an improvement or fixed something, we'd love to hear about it! +Firstly, try to make sure that the patch breaks less than it fixes. We don't +require everyone to be decorated Geniuses, but do attempt to produce a patch that you've +tested and at list sort-of understand what you're doing.

+

Not everyone who knows C knows how to use diff (the tool +you need to create patches with), and not everyone is making patches against the C code. +That's okay, here's the 10ยข survival guide to making patches:

+ +

For more information on diff and patch, +read their man-pages.

+

The prefered way to get the ball rolling on a patch is to file a bug +for your patch and attach the patch to it and then send a notice to the mailing list +about it. If you're really so lazy that you can't do this, we would prefer you at least +mail it to zakk@icculus.org rather than not do +anything.
