SHORT="finds differences between and among files"
cat << EOF
diffutils is a group of utilities that displays difference between and
among text files.
* diff - outputs the difference between two files in any of several
formats. If the files are identical, it normally produces
no output; if they are binary (non-text) it normally
reports only that they are different.
* cmp - shows the offsets and files numbers where two files differ;
it can also show, side by side, all the characters that
differ between the two files.
* sdiff - merges two files interactively.
* diff3 - shows differences among three files. If two people have
made independent changes to a common original, diff3
reports that difference between the original and the two
changed versions, and can produce a merged file that
contains both persons' changes along with warnings about
conflicts.
