Synopsis
pptable-diff [--patch] [--prune] [-o output] [--new <table>] --old <table>
Description
This program writes to standard error a list of pretty-print rules that are contained in pretty-print table "old" but not in "new" and, vice versa. Optionally, this tool patches the pretty-print table "old" by adding new and/or removing obsolete pretty-print entries.
Options
- -h
- display usage information. Use this option to get information on additional options.
- --new <table>
- New pretty-print table. Typically, this is a pretty-print table recently generated by ppgen?. If missing, standard input is used to read a table from.
- --old <table>
- Old pretty-print table. Typically, this is a (manually) customized pretty-print table.
- --patch
- Bring old table up-to-date. If this switch is specified, the table "old" is updated by adding pretty-print rules that are in "new" but not in "old".
- --prune
- Remove obsolete pretty-print entries. If this switch is specified, the table "old" is returned after removing obsolete pretty-print entries (i.e., entries that are not contained in "new").
