cut-diff

CUT-DIFF(1)							  Cutter's manual						       CUT-DIFF(1)

NAME

       cut-diff - show difference between 2 files with color

SYNOPSIS

       cut-diff [option ...] file1 file2

DESCRIPTION

       cut-diff is a diff command that uses diff feature in Cutter. It shows difference with color.

       It's recommended that you use a normal diff(1) when you want to use with patch(1) or you don't need color.

OPTIONS

       --version
	      cut-diff shows its own version and exits.

       -c [yes|true|no|false|auto], --color=[yes|true|no|false|auto]
	      If  'yes' or 'true' is specified, cut-diff uses colorized output by escape sequence. If 'no' or 'false' is specified, cut-diff never
	      use colorized output. If 'auto' or the option is omitted, cut-diff uses colorized output if available.

	      The default is auto.

       -u, --unified
	      cut-diff uses unified diff format.

       --context-lines=LINES
	      Shows diff context around LINES.

	      All lines are shown by default. When unified diff format is used, 3 lines are shown by default.

       --label=LABEL, -L=LABEL
	      Uses LABEL as a header label. The first--label option value is used as file1's label and the second --label  option  value  is  used
	      asfile2's label.

	      Labels are the same as file names by default.

EXIT STATUS

       The exit status is 0 for success, non-0 otherwise.

       TODO: 0 for non-difference, 1 for difference and non-0 for errors.

EXAMPLE

       In the following example, cut-diff shows difference between file1 and file2:
	   % cut-diff file1 file2

       In the following example, cut-diff shows difference between file1 and file2 with unified diff format:
	   % cut-diff -u file1 file2
