Comparing Three Files
*********************

   Use the program `diff3' to compare three files and show any
differences among them.  (`diff3' can also merge files; see 
diff3 Merging ).

   The "normal" `diff3' output format shows each hunk of differences
without surrounding context.  Hunks are labeled depending on whether
they are two-way or three-way, and lines are annotated by their
location in the input files.
