NAME¶
docdiff — character/word-oriented diff
SYNOPSIS¶
docdiff [
options]
file1 file2
DESCRIPTION¶
This manual page documents briefly the
docdiff commands.
This manual page was written for the
Debian distribution because the
original program does not have a manual page. Instead, it has documentation in
the HTML format; see below.
docdiff is a program that compares two files and shows the difference. It
can compare files word by word, char by char, or line by line. It has several
output formats such as HTML/XHTML, tty, Manued, or user-defined markup.
It supports several encodings and end-of-line characters, including ASCII,
UTF-8, EUC-JP, Shift_JIS, CR, LF, and CRLF.
