I have made an attempt to fix bug #44950: trying to open a file in a non-existent directory should not go ahead. Hopefully, I did fix it.
I
was confused regarding creating a patch when I edit multiple files in
source. So I did both - patches (using diff -Naur) for individual
multiple files and patches (diff -Naur) for src folder.
I have attached a compressed file
containing the folder 'Patch' which contains patches (as mentioned
above) and original source code (nano-2-4.2's src folder) and source
code altered by me under names 'original_src' and 'my_src',
respectively.
proto_patch,
nano_patch, files_patch and util_patch are files generated by using
diff utility individually over files proto.h, nano.c, files.c and
utils.c respectively.
Thanks for consideration and time. Sorry for any inconvenience.
