new port: textproc/colordiff - A tool to colorize diff output Colordiff is a wrapper for diff and produces the same output as diff but with coloured syntax highlighting at the command line to improve readability. The output is similar to how a diff-generated patch might appear in Vim or Emacs with the appropriate syntax highlighting options enabled.

Hi Erwin > Just checking, but this does look quite similar to textprox/cdiff. > Might this be the same ? Sorry, I should have pointed that out in my pr. colordiff is entirely written in perl and allows you to use all arguments /usr/bin/diff has. i wasn't quite happy with textprox/cdiff thats why i was looking for something better. compared with textprox/cdiff colordiff is eyecandy for your console :-) with colordiff you can even customize the colors in your ~/.colordiffrc Cheers, Emanuel
State Changed From-To: open->closed Port added, Thanks! One nit: The second line should read PORTVERSION, not DISTVERSION.
