The above-mentioned= link yields the follows :

If you are trying to read input that doesn't match a si= ngle, fixed
pattern, you may be better off using a tool such as Flex= to generate a
lexical scanner, or Bison to generate a parser, rathe= r than using

you could apply the patch to the untarred source by cat <patch-file-name-w-location> | patch -p *after* going into the source directory.
As for the cvs thing I would suggest going to the cvs home and looking up the excellent tutorials avl. there. One thing though. I consider knowing diff/patch/sdiff absolutely necessary to understanding cvs perfectly. just an idiosyncrasy. Sometimes it helps in creating patch just by browsing a cvs via web :)
hope this helps,
