+Once you have made your fix, it is necessary to have at least one
+test for it. Specify the test with a "test_text" entry. Run
+"make check" in the fixinc directory to verify both that your fix
+works (by correctly altering your test text) and that your fix
+does not suppress the work of other fixes. You should readily
+be able to verify this as the "make check" process will print out
+context diffs of fixed files. If everything looks fine, you can

+copy the result files (in the "tests/res/" subdirectory) into the
+baseline directory ("tests/base").
