This is an OpenPGP/MIME signed message (RFC 2440 and 3156) --------------enig583F2804248243C4BF00A7AC Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Dear reader, GNU wdiff 0.6.5 has been released today. This release never initializes or deinitializes terminals, as wdiff doesn't do cursor movement. As a consequence, the --no-init-term (-K) command line has been deprecated, although it's still accepted for backwards compatibility. It now has the same function as the --terminal (-t) option. The release also fixes a bug causing relative paths to appear in the command name in the man pages. The gnulib parts have been updated as well, which might be particularly important for uClibc users. You can get the latest copy from http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/wdiff/ or a GNU mirror of your choice. https://savannah.gnu.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=3D6635 is the official location of the release announcement, in case you want a URL to cite. GNU wdiff is a front end to diff for comparing files on a word per word basis. A word is anything between whitespace. This is useful for comparing two texts in which a few words have been changed and for which paragraphs have been refilled. It works by creating two temporary files, one word per line, and then executes diff on these files. It collects the diff output and uses it to produce a nicer display of word differences between the original files.
