Sounds like a good addition.  In regards to sending patches, if you're on
a UNIX machine, look into the "diff" command, as this is the easiest way
to send fixes around.  If on Windows or MacOS<9, well..  sending the code
I guess is good enough (I think there are diff like utils for windows and
mac, I jsut don't know of any off the top of my head)

Essentaily diff looks at two files and gives you the differences between
them.  If one file is say, Story.class from CVS, then when you diff it to
your hacked story class, you'll get something that we can then apply to
our copy of the CVS code very easily with a utility called "patch" (which
essentailly merges in diffs to a known file)

"man diff" on any unix-alike will give you a more than complete history
and resoning behind the diff command, including advise on how to run diff
to make a patch :)
