Dear Florian,
Thank you very much for maintaining debian's
xxdiff package.
I like how intuitive and useful it is.
Please allow me to draw your attention to
a way I think it may be improved.
I expected xxdiff to highlight differences in
process substitution inputs with yellow and tan
colors.
Unfortunately, it did not highlight a difference.
Maybe you can see it too with
$ xxdiff <( echo a ) <( echo b )
Screen shots of what I saw are attached.
As you can see in them, replacing
process substitution
with
files
works.
So does diff
$ diff <( echo a ) <( echo b )
1c1
< a
---
> b
My humble suggestion:
Improve xxdiff to work with process substitution.
Thanks again,
Kingsley
