Spiff compares the contents of file1 and file2 and prints a
|
|
description of the important differences between the files. White
|
|
space is ignored except to separate other objects. Spiff maintains
|
|
tolerances below which differences between two floating point numbers
|
|
are ignored. Differences in floating point notation (such as 3.4 3.40
|
|
and 3.4e01) are treated as unimportant. User specified delimited
|
|
strings (i.e. comments) can also be ignored. Inside other user
|
|
specified delimited strings (i.e. quoted strings) whitespace can be
|
|
significant.
