Man Linux: Main Page and Category List

NAME

       meld - compare and merge files

SYNOPSIS

       meld directory
       meld file1 file2 [file3]

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual page documents briefly the meld command.  This manual page
       was written for the Debian distribution because  the  original  program
       does not have a manual page.

       meld  is a program that graphically displays the difference between two
       files, and allows the user to merge the changes individually.  It  also
       does  three-way  merge,  that  is  it shows the differences between two
       files which have a common ancestor, and allows the user to  merge  both
       sets of changes into a new file.

       Meld  can  also  be used with CVS, allowing you to view the changes you
       have made locally and merge with the latest revision available.

SEE ALSO

       diff(1), cvs(1).
