How do I apply a patch against a .php file in MediaWiki?

I'm trying to integrate Google Adsense into my MediaWiki site with the ShoutWikiAds (http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ShoutWiki_Ads) extension.

Step 2 reads: Apply the patch against your $IP/skins/MonoBook.php.

The patch is:

Index: MonoBook.php
===================================================================

How do I apply this patch against the monobook.php file? Do I just copy/paste it in the monobook.php file?

A very clear and easy to understand answer would be very much appreciated!

place the file.patch into the same directory of the file and use the following command

patch < file.patch

change the "file.patch" to the correct filename accordingly.
