cwdiff − manual page for cwdiff 0.4.0, 12.11.15
cwdiff [OPTIONS] FILE1 FILE2
A colorized version of (w)diff, which can be used a wrapper script, too.
−f, −−filter
Act as a wdiff color filter only and don’t execute diff/wdiff internally, just colorize input (no ARGS = read from stdin)
−d, −−diff
Preprocess input with diff and before giving it to wdiff (very useful for dirs). Option can be used in combination with −−filter option meaning input is a patch.
−D, −−diffonly
Process input with diff, but NOT with wdiff, so cwdiff basically acts like a colorized version of diff. Option can be used in combination with −−filter option meaning input is a patch.
−−diffopts XXX
Change options given to diff. The default is ’−−new−file −−unified −−show−c−function −−recursive’.
