Hi,

I feel therez a problem with the ALGORITHM, used for the implementation of
GNU diff utility.
I tried in Solaris OS. Because, when I try to find the diff between 2 files,
say one.txt and two.txt where:

one.txt contents:               two.txt contents:
Line 1                  Line 1
Line 2                  Line 2
Line 3                  Line 4
Line 4                  Line 4
Line 5                  Line 5

I used the command as follows:
'diff -e one.txt two.txt'

The original output shud be :
d3 1
a3 1

But the utility results in the following:
d3 1

a4 1
Line 4

So, I feel the above result is WRONG!!

Is this reported already?? If yes, is there any solution available??

Awaiting reply.

Thanx & Regards,
Kesavan.
