Because you're trying to create a patch for a binary file and CVS doesn't support that. (You seem to have omitted the first part of the error message, which reads: "failed to read diff file header".) The ultimate problem is that CVS is trying to parse the diff header, but diff just writes a brief message (something like "binary files differ") rather than a normal diff when it encounters a binary file. -Larry Jones I don't want to be THIS good! -- Calvin
