I use vim -d to do my merges. The appropriate settings are in etc-update.conf. This is only really recommended if you are familiar with vi. The advantage is that you can see the before and after versions of the file, and can copy lines between them easily. The appropriate setting are: pager="" diff_command="vim -d %file1 %file2" using_editor=1 merge_command="sdiff -s -o %merged %orig %new" -- Craig West Ph: (416) 666-1645 | It's not a bug, [EMAIL PROTECTED] | It's a feature... -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
