|
NAME
|
|
vimdiff - edit two or three versions of a file with Vim
|
|
and show differences
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
vimdiff [options] file1 file2 [file3]
|
|
|
|
gvimdiff
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
Vimdiff starts Vim on two (or three) files. 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 another 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 differences 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 intead,
|
|
use the "-o" argument.
|
|
|
|
For all other arguments see vim(1).
