Package: colordiff
Version: 1.0.13-1
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

colordiff sometimes fails to colorize the output from wdiff,
specifically when there is a line break in one of the two files. Here
is a sample:

File a:
----------------------------------------
this is a test of colordiff
----------------------------------------

File b:
----------------------------------------
this is an
exam of wdiff
----------------------------------------

wdiff a b:
----------------------------------------
this is [-a test-] {+an
exam+} of [-colordiff-] {+wdiff+}
----------------------------------------

wdiff a b | colordiff | cat (with escapes sanitized):
----------------------------------------
this is ^[[1;31m[-a test-]^[0;0m {+an^[[0;0m
exam+} of ^[[1;31m[-colordiff-]^[[0;0m ^[[1;34m{+wdiff+}^[[0;0m^[[0;0m
----------------------------------------

Note that "an exam" is not colorized correctly.
