diffpp(1)


NAME

   diffpp - pretty-print diff outputs with GNU enscript

SYNOPSIS

   diffpp currentfile < diff-file

DESCRIPTION

   Diffpp  converts diff(1)-program's output files to a format suitable to
   be printed with GNU enscript(1).  Program annotates  the  changes  with
   enscript's  special  escapes  so  enscript  can  highlight the modified
   portions of the file.  All changed and added  lines  are  printed  with
   gray-background,  deleted lines are marked with minus (`-') characters;
   diffpp prints one minus character for each deleted line.

EXAMPLES

   The easiest way to use diffpp is to use  it  as  an  input  filter  for
   enscript.   If  an input filter is specified for enscript it is used to
   pre-process the incoming data-stream.  Filtering  does  not  alter  any
   header  strings  or  file-timestamps which might be printed on enscript
   headers; only the incoming data is modified.

   enscript -G2re --filter='rcsdiff %s | diffpp %s' *.c *.h
           Print the changes between current source files and their latest
           RCS-versions.

   enscript -G2re --filter='diff %s~ %s | diffpp %s' *.c *.h
           Print  changes  between  source  files  and  the  corresponding
           backup-files.
