Diff command file entries in different lines
Hello,
I have two files to compare these contain some contents like this :
FIle 1 :
A
B
C
E
File 2 has some new entries and the old entries are in some different ordre
File 2 could be like this :
C
E
A
B
G
I
How can I use diff command to only get the entries in file 2 that are new , so I dont want to know at which line the files differ, but only the entries in 2 that do not match any entries in 1.??
Note : These files provided here are just examples, but in reality the size of 1 and 2 could be very large, (say 900 entries or more)

Hello,
I want to compare two files. All records in file 2 that are not in file 1 should be output to file 3.
For example:
file 1

1234
123456
file 2
123
2345
23456
file 3 should have

23456

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?

dxmsvngetdisplayed
DXmSvnGetDisplayed(3X) DXmSvnGetDisplayed(3X)
NAME
DXmSvnGetDisplayed - Retrieves (returns) displayed entry numbers and related information necessary to draw a corresponding display.
SYNOPSIS
void DXmSvnGetDisplayed(
Widget widget,
int *entries(),
XtPointer *tags(),
int *ys(),
int len );
PARAMETERS
The identifier (widget ID) of the SVN widget. A pointer to an array of integers to receive the entry numbers of the entries being dis-
played. A pointer to an array of longwords to receive the application's entry_tag value for each entry displayed. If tags are not
required, a Null pointer may be passed. A pointer to an array of longwords to receive the y coordinates for each entry displayed. If y
coordinates are not required, a Null pointer can be passed. The number of entries allocated in the provided array.
DESCRIPTION
The DXmSvnGetDisplayed routine returns information about the entries that the SVN widget is currently displaying. This information can
then be used to keep a simultaneous display up to date with the SVN widget window (in the case of a dialog box, for example, which might
contain totals for the entries being displayed).
The application is responsible for managing the memory used to return this list of entries. As such, note the following: At the minimum,
the number of entries in the array should be capable of holding at least the number of entries indicated by the value returned from the
DXmSvnGetNumDisplayed routine. If there are more entries in the array than the application will need, the SVN widget will set the value
for those extra entries to 0. If the capacity of the arrays passed is less than the number of selected entries, only the number of entries
allocated in the provided array (the value for len) will be returned.
