Index: readme.txt =================================================================== RCS file: /cvsroot/meta-diff/meta-diff/readme.txt,v retrieving revision 1.4 retrieving revision 1.5 diff -C2 -d -r1.4 -r1.5 *** readme.txt 28 Jul 2005 16:00:34 -0000 1.4 --- readme.txt 30 Jul 2005 11:09:50 -0000 1.5 *************** *** 9,23 **** Overview ! Many source-code control systems (such as TortoiseCVS) allow you to use your own file comparison tool to examine the differences between various versions of your source code. But what if you want to use more than one diff tool? For example, you might use ExamDiff to compare all your C++ source code, LVDiff to compare virtual instrument (VI) files written in LabVIEW, and CSDiff to compare word processor files. meta-diff will automatically launch whichever diff program you've specified for the file type you're comparing. So point your version control system to meta-diff and enjoy the flexibility! What's new in v2.0 ! Divided process-launching code into Win32 and UN*X variants in order to tolerate the quirks of various platforms. Usage ! To use metadiff, edit the .metadiff file as directed in the instructions in that file. Basically, for each file extension you want to compare, you'll want to add a line telling metadiff which diff tool to use for that type of file. Do not enclose your path names in quotes. ! Then, run "metadiff file1 file2", where file1 and file2 are the full paths to the two files you are comparing. Enjoy! --- 9,35 ---- Overview !
