Hi,
I'm trying to write some code, which will do a direct comparison of 2 files.
I'm using:
..this prints out like:
2 # ==================================================================
3 # Bla Bla
3 # Bla Bla Changed This
4 ################################################
5 Something else
(i.e repeats lines that have changed)
...now, this is good - BUT, what I need to do, is try and color code the bits that were taken out (and the bits that were not). i.e make bits red that were taken out - and green for bits that were added. Is there any way to combine the code I have above, and the -u (so it shows + and - or > and < next to lines that were modified)
Anyone got any suggestions? :/
i.e I need the output something like:
2 # ==================================================================
3 # Bla Bla
3 # Bla Bla Changed This
4 ################################################
5 Something else
TIA for any suggestions. I've come to a bit of a roadblock with this :(
