schdiff(1)			 1.8.2.20130925 		      schdiff(1)

NAME
     schdiff - Graphical diff tool for schematics

SYNOPSIS
     schdiff infile1.sch infile2.sch

DESCRIPTION
     The  schdiff program will use ImageMagick(1) to display a graphical diff of
     two gschem schematic files.  It's most useful when combined with a revision
     control system so it can compare two revisions of	the  same  file,  review
     changes, etc.  However, it is limited in that it can only compare two files
     at  a time; it cannot diff entire directories nor can it diff an entire re-
     vision (unless that revision affected only one file).   It  can  easily  be
     configured  to  work with most revision control systems.  Here are instruc-
     tions for three:

     git: Use the difftool command exactly as you would use diff  ,  but  supply
     the -x schdiff option.

     mercurial:  Use the schdiff command exactly as you would use diff , but add
     the following lines to your .hgrc:

	      [extensions]
	      hgext.extdiff =
	      [extdiff]
	      cmd.schdiff = schdiff

     subversion: Use the diff command like normal,  but  supply  the  --diff-cmd
     schdiff option.

EXAMPLES
     Use git to view the changes to a file between two revisions
	    git  difftool  -x  schdiff	182110f690c51eb53ea1799fd022e87322d742e3
	    039e012397f2638d1577dd7c80fb862a5503dbfd cpu.sch

     Use mercurial to see all the changes since a specific revision
	    hg schdiff -r 8442880f9835 cpld.sch

     Use subversion to review a specific revision
	    svn diff --diff-cmd schdiff -c 49 power.sch
