NAME
       rcsdiff - compare RCS revisions

SYNOPSIS
       rcsdiff [ -biwt ] [ -cefhn ] [ -rrev1 ] [ -rrev2 ] file ...

DESCRIPTION
       Rcsdiff	runs diff (1) to compare two revisions of each RCS file given.
       A file name ending in ',v' is an RCS file  name,	 otherwise  a  working
       file name. Rcsdiff derives the working file name from the RCS file name
       and vice versa, as explained in co (1). Pairs consisting of both an RCS
       and a working file name may also be specified.

       All options except -r have the same effect as described in diff(1).

       If both rev1 and rev2 are omitted, rcsdiff compares the latest revision
       on the trunk with the contents of the corresponding working file.  This
       is useful for determining what you changed since the last checkin.

       If  rev1	 is given, but rev2 is omitted, rcsdiff compares revision rev1
       of the RCS file with the contents of the corresponding working file.

       If both rev1 and rev2 are given, rcsdiff compares  revisions  rev1  and
       rev2 of the RCS file.

       Both rev1 and rev2 may be given numerically or symbolically.

EXAMPLES
       The command

	       rcsdiff	f.c

       runs  diff  on  the  latest  trunk  revision  of RCS file f.c,v and the
       contents of working file f.c.
