The string "diff" does exist in both files (I created the files to show an example). I realize that diff has the ability to provide differences for the purpose of merging files, I am not interested in that. I am creating a report from output of diff and am filtering out the additional information that diff provides (e.g. ---, +++, @@). The report would be much more useful if the differences were shown as one line at a time instead of being grouped. If there is another command/tool that I can use instead of diff for that I am open to it. Thanks.

I wondered if someone could point out the differences between the time commmand and usr/bin/time and the accuracy one might have over another.
Also, is there a website or two a person could maybe link for me to describe the differences?
Thank you for your time. (2 Replies)

Hi,
When I run the diff command using diff -yt file1 file2, I get the output in which original lines are truncated.
I tried using -W switch with diff. However, that does not produce exact output as I want. Is it possible to show entire line of file1 and file2 in diff command's output?

ZDIFF(1) General Commands Manual ZDIFF(1)
NAME
zcmp, zdiff - compare compressed files
SYNOPSIS
zcmp [ cmp_options ] file1 [ file2 ]
zdiff [ diff_options ] file1 [ file2 ]
DESCRIPTION
Zcmp and zdiff are used to invoke the cmp or the diff program on files compressed via gzip. All options specified are passed directly to
cmp or diff. If only file1 is specified, it is compared to the uncompressed contents of file1.gz. If two files are specified, their con-
tents (uncompressed if necessary) are fed to cmp or diff. The input files are not modified. The exit status from cmp or diff is pre-
served.
SEE ALSO
cmp(1), diff(1), zmore(1), zgrep(1), znew(1), zforce(1), gzip(1), gzexe(1)
BUGS
Messages from the cmp or diff programs may refer to file names such as "-" instead of to the file names specified.
