gdiffmk is approximately a recreation of the original Bell Labs/AT&T diffmk
command for troff/nroff documents, with enhancements.

It should not be confused with 'diffmk' commands that operate on XML.

The inspiration for this code was a Perl 2 version written in 1989 by Randal
L. Schwartz.  See
  landfield.com/software/comp.sources.misc/archive-name/volume06/diffmk.p.gz

The command also attempts to reproduce some of the functionality of the old
'nrchbar' command.  See
  open-systems.ufl.edu/mirrors/ftp.isc.org/usenet/comp.sources.unix/volume10/nrchbar.Z

Thanks to Werner Lemberg for help in making the package more portable and
fit into the GNU groff source structure.

Gnu diff(1) with the -Dname option does all of the work and sed(1)
translates the output into something groff/troff/nroff can handle.

Note the BUGS on the man page.

The 'tests' directory contains simple tests.  'runtests run' runs them and
compares the output against baseline files.  Calling 'runtests' without
argument gives the usage.
