"The Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans." I live in a word of command lines almost exclusively, unless I am running a Web browser. Consequently, the underlying system can be Linux, BSD, OS X, Cygwin, or none of the above. When I want to see a diff, I type "diff file1 file2 | less". > Right now, I hit Alt+Shift+D, which invokes a short macro calling menu entry > view:<? diff -x "CVS" -x ".svn" -I "\$Id.*\$" -I "\$Rev.*\$" -I "\$Date.*\$" > -I "\$Author.*\$" -I "\$URL.*\$" -I "^Orbiting .*$" !?$UnixDiff$Options ((-c, > -b etc.)):?! --strip-trailing-cr -- "!#!\!.!"

But to each their own. > Because Cygwin diff consume normal Windows paths without an issue. No doubt. But it also handles /cygdrive/c paths, the moral equivalent of /mnt/c paths, and that's what I use. -- John Cowan http://www.ccil.org/~cowan co...@ccil.org And they pack their lyrics till they're so damn dense You could put 'em in your yard and you could use 'em for a fence. --Alan Chapman, "Everybody Wants to Be Sondheim" -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
