How to apply a patch?

by

I found a patch I want here:
http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/17763

I can see the diff, but what do I do now? How can I get that code into my WordPress? Do I have to copy it manually? Is there anywhere to download it from?

You can download the diff file from the bottom of the diff page.

The program to apply a diff is called “patch”. It’s widely available for various platforms.
