If you want to derive the working file's path, it's in the -L arguments
(argv[3] and argv[5]). Mind the tabs.
I'd look into scripting something around :diffpatch in Vim: some custom
command you run while editing the file. In that case, you'll to reverse
the diff before applying it. (you can use a diff-cmd wrapper,
or the patchutils package, or patch -R, to do that)
