Thread: Using the -u switch for diff in regress.sh

Using the -u switch for diff in regress.sh

Hi,

has somebody tried to replace the -c switch with the -u switch
(available with GNU diffutils) in the script regess.sh?

Well, I did it and I find the resulting output much easier on the eye
to compare the current and the expected results.

This change might be worth a little hint in the regress/README file.
