- This is GNU DIFF 1.15 as modified by Allan Pratt (atari!apratt on Usenet,
- APRATT on GEnie) to run under TOS. This derivative work is being released
- by me under the terms of the GNU public license, version 1, as per
- derivative works. It is released in both source and binary form. You need
- this version of diff for RCS5AKP1, my port of RCS version 5.
-
- My modifications do the following:
-
- 1. Remove the -l flag, which causes the output to be piped through 'pr'
- for pagination. You can't do that under TOS.
-
- 2. Remove the use of the 'ino' field of the stat structure to see if two
- files are really the same file. This works under UNIX but not under TOS.
- The result is that you can diff a file against itself. The result is the
- same as the original sources ("no difference") but it'll take longer to
- figure that out.
-
- If you want to recompile the code, these features are enabled by setting
- NO_PAGINATE and DONT_USE_STAT_INO to 1. If you set them to zero, you get
- the original code exactly. There are slightly more details in the makefile
- for diff.
