NAME

       numinterval - Show the numeric intervals between each line in a file.

SYNOPSIS

       numinterval [-dhV] <FILE>

       | numinterval [-dhV]    (Input on STDIN from pipeline.)

       numinterval [-dhV]      (Input on STDIN.  Use Ctrl-D to stop.)

DESCRIPTION

       numinterval will calculate and display the numeric interval between one
       number and the next on an input stream.

       This can be quite useful for showing quantities of increase or decrease
       of data when the numbers themselves aren’t providing you with what you
       want.  For instance, I wrote this program after wanting to see the rate
       of change in box office ticket sales for movies on imdb.com. ;-)

OPTIONS

           -h  Help: You're looking at it.
           -V  Increase verbosity.
           -d  Debug mode.  For developers
           -q  Don't print any warnings.  Quiet mode.
