This manual page documents briefly the 
\fBdocdiff\fR       commands.

This manual page was written for the \fBDebian\fP distribution

Instead, it has documentation in the HTML 
format; see below.

\fBdocdiff\fR is a program that 
compares two files and shows the difference.

including ASCII, UTF-8, EUC-JP, Shift_JIS, CR, LF, and CRLF.
