Here are the steps one would need to use these patches:

1. get a recent CVS checkout of nedit
    - see SF page
   or
    - use my git mirror:
      $ git clone git://kgb.endoftheinternet.org/git/nedit.git

2. change into the new work dir
   $ cd nedit

3. clone patch queue into directory 'patches'
   $ git clone git://repo.or.cz/nedit-bw.git patches

4. apply all patches with quilt
   $ quilt push -a

5. compile
