Re: [Diffuse-users] diffues output to file

[Alexander M. <ale...@ph...>]

Derrick,

This is sad :(

For my purposes I need `diffuse` to be called from terminal/console with
bunch of options. GUI is secondly. I thought you are calling some function
under the hood that produces diff for N files in some inner format. Then
that `diff for N files` is passed to GUI. So, the task now is to program
pretty printer to produce text to std-out. If it is tightly coupled then
there is a problem...
