Generate a patch

cvs diff -u -p > MyF-Spot.diff

If you have added a new source file, the following command will add this

diff -u -p /dev/null <NEW FILE> >> MyF-Spot.diff

You must also update the Makefile.am (which is used to create the other
makefiles. Do not forget to update the Changelog either.
