So i want to be sure= i write the patch in a right way. I want to add a function called 'eval-to-texi' to emacs (i already signed papers for that). There are my questions: - I suppose texinfo.el is the right way to add it. =BFIt is right?. - All functions in texinfo.el start with a 'texinfo-' prefix. May i to set that prefix to 'eval-to-texi' naming it 'texinfo-eval-to-texi'? - May i to include an autoload for 'eval-to-texi'? - To make the patch in unidiff format, would be right to generate it using 'cvs diff texinfo.el' on a fresh emacs cvs checkout? Or from the root directory: 'cvs diff listp/textmodes/texinfo.el' =20 - May i to add an entry to lisp/ChangeLog and send a patch for it too? I think i can guess reasonable answers to that questions. But i want to= be completely sure. Many thanks! --=20 Jos=E9 E.
