Name¶
Text::WordDiff::ANSIColor - ANSI colored formatting for Text::WordDiff
Synopsis¶
use Text::WordDiff;
my $diff = word_diff 'file1.txt', 'file2.txt';
my $diff = word_diff \$string1, \$string2, { STYLE => 'ANSIColor' };
my $diff = word_diff \*FH1, \*FH2; \%options;
my $diff = word_diff \&reader1, \&reader2;
my $diff = word_diff \@records1, \@records2;
# May also mix input types:
my $diff = word_diff \@records1, 'file_B.txt';
Description¶
This class subclasses Text::WordDiff::Base to provide a formatting class for
Text::WordDiff that uses ANSI-standard terminal escape sequences to highlight
deleted and inserted text. This formatting class is the default class used by
Text::WordDiff; see its documentation for details on its interface. This class
should never be used directly.
Text::WordDiff::ANSIColor formats word diffs for viewing in an ANSI-standard
terminal session. The diff content is highlighted as follows:
- Deletes
- Deleted words will display in bold-faced red. The ANSI
standard for strikethrough is also used, but since it is not supported by
most terminals, likely will not show up.
- Inserts
- Inserted words will display in bold-faced, underlined
green.
All other content is simply returned.
