Does anyone know exactly what format that the DOS port of RCS 5.6 is looking
for from diff?

I have corrected several bugs in the spawn to diff (I still haven't attacked
the problem with whitespace following the -L option), but diff -an appears
to be working fine.  RCS says that diff failed though, and I have sent mail
to the address in the docs to no avail.

I'm sure I'm not the only one working on this (we have it up on our Xenix
system, and would like to have the same under DOS) so I am posting this
here, which I hope is the right group.  If not, follow directions below :)
