Schwartz. See + landfield.com/software/comp.sources.misc/archive-name/volume06/diffmk.p.gz + +The command also attempts to reproduce some of the functionality of the old +'nrchbar' command. See + open-systems.ufl.edu/mirrors/ftp.isc.org/usenet/comp.sources.unix/volume10/nrchbar.Z + +Thanks to Werner Lemberg for help in making the package more portable and +fit into the GNU groff source structure. + +Gnu diff(1) with the -Dname option does all of the work and sed(1) +translates the output into something groff/troff/nroff can handle. + +Note the BUGS on the man page. + +The 'tests' directory contains simple tests. 'runtests run' runs them and +compares the output against baseline files. Calling 'runtests' without +argument gives the usage. + +---------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Copyright (C) 2004-2020 Free Software Foundation, Inc. +Written by Mike Bianchi > + +This file is part of the gdiffmk utility, which is part of groff. + +groff is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it +under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by +the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or +(at your option) any later version. + +groff is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT +ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY +or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
