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.
