Got it, I'm building it now. That's sort of where I thought it
was supposed to go but wanted to be sure. I'll let you know the
results here in a few minutes.

Something along the lines of:

cp main.c main.c.old
vi main.c (and make the changes)
diff -u main.c.old main.c > main.patch

that's for unified. context would be -c instead of -u

If I recall correctly it's diff oldfile newfile but not posivie.
You can also do diff -r and name directories and get a recursive
diff of everything there.
