diff for multiple files
Sebastian Wright
I use "diff -y" command to compare 2 results of different versions of my program line by line. Like this:
1 1
123 | 234
asdf | qerqIs there analog for multiple files, which will allow to compare line by line 3 or 4 files?Like this:
1 1 1 1
123 | 234 | 345 | 234

vimdiff 1 2 3 4;
It's highly customisable with loads of features, for example if you want to dump the UI to html;
vimdiff 1 2 3 4 -c TOhtml -c 'w! diff4.html|qa!' 0 Here's a nice suggestion on stackoverflow. Take a look at the accepted answer about Diffuse software.
As for the output of the comparison to a file, I've just tested it with diffuse-0.4.6, but was unable to discover such feature, so I guess it's a topic for another question...
3There is diff3 for comparing three files
