Another diff Viewer

[Nathan Samson]

Hi all,

I'm a student computer science at the university and we are using
Oberon-2 as programming language. Now we have a project (Software
engeneering) that we work on, and we store our code in a bazaar
repository. The problem is the Oberon system saves all files as Binary
data, so we can't view diffs. Since these binary files are mostly
normal files (only at the top their are some binary bits, other parts
are ASCII with \r as line ending (technically binary data could be in
the middle of the file but we don't use that)).

My question: can I modify bzr with a plugin (or commandline options)
so that I can view a diff? Stripping the first bytes of the file +
line ending conversion should be enough to make it work. (or are their
any existing plugins to use)?

Thanks for any help...

PS: If you are wondering why oberon saves source code as Binary files
=> You can add code formatting (colors/fonts/more advanced stuff and
so on in the file, so it is binary),
their is now way to store source code in oberon as ASCII (as far as I know)
PPS: Yeah I dislike that system (Oberon is pretty outdated too), but
we need to use it...
