Mr.Ospite

Hi. Thanks to teaching me a lot.

I as much as possible comply rule for Linux developing.
I can't write my mind in English, as you said. (XD)
But, I'll continuously study more Linux and Git and English!
And I can write in C language to work some devices.

I'm sorry to my cheap English...

I wanted to tell a version and what is changes,
I looked for this writing.
I'll use this.

I will read it carefully.

I'll fix next time.

I use that script with no option.
I'll use useful options too.

I get diff usually, between original source and my changed it.
But developing on Git, I know not recommend this method,
developing must as time goes by.

I just worry to send my code rightly.

I thanks you and maintainer Mr.Torokhov, patiently reception.

Regard.
