Hi folks,

would it be possible to support color output in diff, if
stdout is a terminal? Something similar to
"grep --color=auto" would be nice.

Sometimes the difference between 2 lines is very hard to see,
for example if a ':' is replaced by ';', or if a white space
char has been added at the end of a line. Colors could help
alot to improve readability.


Regards
Harri
