Hello devs,

I just wanted to know how to create and contribute (if it is in fact possible) diff files for Addons manual pages. I have made some grammar and other minor corrections locally, but dunno how to send them other than bothering the developer to make the changes :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks much in advance for any instruction :slight_smile:

Best,
Vero
