Try using the ediff command within Emacs-- it's excellent for this, as well as for doing manual file merges. Each difference is broken down such that it's color-coded, and can be copied from one buffer to the other. There's even a 3-way diff when things get really nasty-- meta-x ediff-files3 (or buffers3). _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
