diff(1)

[Ben Mesander]

Hi,

  I've recently done a port of OpenBSD diff(1) to FreeBSD for
licensing reasons (the diff(1) in base FreeBSD is GPL licensed),
OpenBSD has a BSD-style license).

  I was going to work with Warner to see if I could get this into
the ports collection. But we were also curious to see if other
people thought it might be OK to replace the GNU diff in base
with the OpenBSD diff.

  For reference, here is the OpenBSD diff source and manpage:
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/usr.bin/diff/

  There would also have to be some integration with other programs
(such as diff3(1)).

Regards,
Ben Mesander
