diff –c marks lines removed from price1 with –, lines added to price1 with + and
lines changed in both files with !. In the example, diff shows the default three lines
of context around each changed line. One line was changed in both files (marked
with !), one line was added to price1 (marked with +), and one line was removed
from price1 (marked with –).
Note: If there are no marks to be shown in the corresponding lines of the file being
compared, the lines are not displayed. Lines 11 to 13 of price2 are
suppressed for this reason.
diff uses the following localization environment variables:
