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.

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. OPTIONS
