[xpad-devel] padding support

[Nagy M. <k-...@fr...>]

greetings,
 I came across xpad after seeing a sort of sticky-note app for windows
in use on a 'doze machine at work and searching for such a package on
sourceforge. I started using it and I liked it very much - however,
there is one feature I missed: the ability to set a padding between the
textarea and the border. This may even be the windowmanager I use
(blackbox) but the notes don't look very good when the text touches the
same-colored border. So I downloaded the sources and hacked padding
support in. You can configure padding in a new notebook pane, it handles
default values, saving, etc.. I'd like to post the patch here - the
problem is, I'm not very familiar with the process. I've got the
original 1.2.1 source in one directory, the modified in another - how do
I create a patch you can use? (I figure it would be something like diff
xpad_orig xpad_mod > mypatch or something like this?)
thanks for help!

best regards,
 k-zed
