Dear Lazyweb: Curses based diff viewer

Dear Lazyweb,

I’m in the need of a curses (or curses like) diff viewer for some deployment scripts I am writing.

I would like to have two panes showing different files and how they are different.

Anyone know of something that could fit my needs?

Thanks,

Lazy Coder

  1. Just wondering… what about vimdiff?

  • Matt Palmer Says:

    Yep, I’d second vimdiff. Might be a bit freaky if you’re not a vim person, but it sounds like it’d suit your needs well enough.

  • Billy Kwong Says:

    vimdiff thirded.

    I’m partial to dirdiff ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/dirdiff/ ). It’s got a cute tcl gui and will do merges for you.

    curses, foiled again.
