 Hi Erwin

 Sorry, I should have pointed that out in my pr.
 
 colordiff is entirely written in perl and allows you to use all
 arguments /usr/bin/diff has. i wasn't quite happy with textprox/cdiff
 thats why i was looking for something better. compared with
 textprox/cdiff colordiff is eyecandy for your console :-)
 
 with colordiff you can even customize the colors in your ~/.colordiffrc
 
 Cheers,
 Emanuel
