I am sorry. Let me be more specific.

I have two files. When I do diff I get some difference. Like below.
Up to .003 difference is ok but diff fails the comparision.


File1: ABC1231|-2.306|0.0121|9.766
File2: ABC1231|-2.305|0.0123|9.767


So what I thought was following:
-2.306 minus -2.305 is less than or equal to 0.003 than it pass
0.0121 minus 0.0123 is less than or equal to 0.003 than it pass
9.766 minus 9.767 is less than or equal to 0.003 than it pass

Any help please.

All I am trying to do is diff between two files.

File1: ABC1231|-2.306|0.0121|9.766
File2: ABC1231|-2.305|0.0123|9.767


However, the last digit in field 2, 3 and 4 are different it fails.
If the difference of the last digit is less than or equal to .003 than I need to pass.

Any suggestion please.
Thanks,
Prashant

diffpp

DIFFPP(1)							      DIFFPP								 DIFFPP(1)

NAME

       diffpp - pretty-print diff outputs with GNU enscript

SYNOPSIS

       diffpp currentfile < diff-file

DESCRIPTION

       Diffpp converts diff(1)-program's output files to a format suitable to be printed with GNU enscript(1).	Program annotates the changes with
       enscript's special escapes so enscript can highlight the modified portions of the file.	All changed  and  added  lines	are  printed  with
       gray-background, deleted lines are marked with minus (`-') characters; diffpp prints one minus character for each deleted line.

EXAMPLES

       The  easiest  way  to  use diffpp is to use it as an input filter for enscript.	If an input filter is specified for enscript it is used to
       pre-process the incoming data-stream.  Filtering does not alter any header strings or file-timestamps which might be  printed  on  enscript
       headers; only the incoming data is modified.

       enscript -G2re --filter='rcsdiff %s | diffpp %s' *.c *.h
	       Print the changes between current source files and their latest RCS-versions.

       enscript -G2re --filter='diff %s~ %s | diffpp %s' *.c *.h
	       Print changes between source files and the corresponding backup-files.
