$LINE >> NEWFILE
doesn't make sense. You need to do something like:
echo $LINE >> NEWFILE
Also...
if [ $count < 500 ] then
is not going to have the effect you think it will. Replace < with -lt to compare stuff. (If you want to open a file called 500 and make it available for your [ command to read, then you have the right syntax.)

-V
More verbose information during patch creation.
-O
Deactivate match limit of the -A switch (sometimes smaller patches).
-A=500
Maximum number of block matches per block (improves performance). Default is 500, larger is slower. Use -V to see the cut-off aborts.

0
Success
1
Arguments missing
