Oracle SchemaDiff

First, thanks.

What a nice bit of work, I appreciate your efforts.
After building DBI and DBD (a bit of a headache on OS
X) and then Oracle DDL, I got started using SchemaDiff.

I ran into a problem where ^M characters were being
passed in to the connect string. Being a perl neophyte
I used chop to clean that up, this is likely the wrong fix.
E.g.
chop(my $user = shift);
chop(my $pwd = shift);
chop(my $database = shift);

Now I can connect, but somehow the script only seems
to map to the first schema in the config file,
resulting in a difference file where all objects are
not in the second schema. Everything winds up in the
“Unique” column in the resulting html.

The connection is made to the second schema, because if
I mistype the password the connection fails.

The name of the resulting file(s) begin with a LFCR e.g. “
summary.html”

Inside the files the schema name is preceded by a space
as well (presumably a LFCR?).
