DOCDIFF(1)						      General Commands Manual							DOCDIFF(1)

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 docu-
       mentation 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.
