I know man pages are often hard to understand, but I kinda remember diff being pretty good. I used the diff man pages to learn how to make patches. I don't mean this as a flame. I just think that since looking it up yourself is probably faster than waiting for responses on this list, these kind of questions waste everybody's time. Sam p.s. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy wastes of time (with the exception of downloading long sigs) :) +-----------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://cspo.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list_faq.html | +-----------------------------------------------------------+
