description
dehtmldiff
creates usable diff files from HTML pages. This is useful in
the scenario where a patch has been posted to a mailing list
viewable via a web page.
The corrected
diff is sent to standard output. Note that you will probably
need to use the -l option when applying the
patch, in order to ignore any whitespace differences there
may be.
options
--help
Display a short usage
message.
--version
Display the version number of
dehtmldiff.
limitations
The way this command works is fairly primitive; it boils down to
some simple text replacements, followed by an unwrapdiff
pass. As a result, all of the limitations that apply to
unwrapdiff also apply to dehtmldiff.
