Hi, people.
A new release of GNU `wdiff' is now available for anonymous ftp from
prep.ai.mit.edu [18.71.0.38], in pub/gnu, as file wdiff-0.5.tar.gz.
Thanks to all those who contributed comments or suggestions.
The program `wdiff' is a front end to `diff' for comparing files
on a word per word basis. A word is anything between whitespace.
This program is particularily useful for comparing two texts in
which a few words have been changed and for which paragraphs have
been refilled.
Most reported problems are solved. Some bugs or suggestions may
Here are the user visible changes since the last official version:
* Option --ignore-case (-i) will fold case while comparing.
* Filename "-", used once, means that file comes from standard input.
* A few bugs, not all, have disappeared.
