Each file gets its own + window. The differences between the files are highlighted. This is a + nice way to inspect changes and to move changes from one version to an‐ + other version of the same file. + + See vim(1) for details about Vim itself. + + When started as gvimdiff the GUI will be started, if available. + + In each window the 'diff' option will be set, which causes the differ‐ + ences to be highlighted. + The 'wrap' and 'scrollbind' options are set to make the text look good. + The 'foldmethod' option is set to "diff", which puts ranges of lines + without changes in a fold. 'foldcolumn' is set to two to make it easy + to spot the folds and open or close them. + +OPTIONS + Vertical splits are used to align the lines, as if the "-O" argument + was used. To use horizontal splits instead, use the "-o" argument. + + For all other arguments see vim(1). + +SEE ALSO + vim(1) + +AUTHOR + Most of Vim was made by Bram Moolenaar, with a lot of help from others. + See ":help credits" in Vim. + + + + 2001 March 30 VIMDIFF(1) |
