Each element is split in to three segments (leading whitespace, body, trailing whitespace). If whitespace differs in a segement, that segment is whitespace escaped. Here is an example of the selective whitespace. +--+--------------------------+--------------------------+ \| \|demo_ws_A.txt \|demo_ws_B.txt \| \| \|Fri Dec 21 08:36:32 2001 \|Fri Dec 21 08:36:50 2001 \| +--+--------------------------+--------------------------+ \| 1\|identical \|identical \| * 2\| spaced in \| also spaced in * * 3\|embedded space \|embedded tab * \| 4\|identical \|identical \| * 5\| spaced in \|\ttabbed in * * 6\|trailing spaces\s\s\n \|trailing tabs\t\t\n * \| 7\|identical \|identical \| * 8\|lf line\n \|crlf line\r\n * * 9\|embedded ws \|embedded\tws * +--+--------------------------+--------------------------+ Here's why the lines do or do not have whitespace escaped: =over =item lines 1, 4, 7 don't differ, no need. =item lines 2, 3 differ in non-whitespace, no need. =item lines 5, 6, 8, 9 all have subtle ws changes. =back Whether or not line 3 should have that tab character escaped is a judgement call; so far I'm choosing not to. =head1 UNICODE To output the raw unicode chracters consult the documentation of L<Text::Diff::Config>. You can set the C<DIFF_OUTPUT_UNICODE> environment variable to 1 to output it from the command line. For more information, consult this bug: L<https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=54214> . =head1 LIMITATIONS Table formatting requires buffering the entire diff in memory in order to calculate column widths. This format should only be used for smaller diffs. Assumes tab stops every 8 characters, as $DIETY intended. Assumes all character codes >= 127 need to be escaped as hex codes, ie that the user's terminal is ASCII, and not even "high bit ASCII", capable. This can be made an option when the need arises. Assumes that control codes (character codes 0..31) that don't have slash-letter escapes ("\n", "\r", etc) in Perl are best presented as hex escapes ("\x01") instead of octal ("\001") or control-code ("\cA") escapes. =head1 AUTHOR Barrie Slaymaker E<lt>barries@slaysys.comE<gt> =head1 LICENSE Copyright 2001 Barrie Slaymaker, All Rights Reserved.

=head1 NAME

Text::Diff::Table - Text::Diff plugin to generate "table" format output

=head1 SYNOPSIS

use Text::Diff;
  
  diff \@a, $b, { STYLE => "Table" };

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This is a plugin output formatter for Text::Diff that generates "table" style
diffs:

This format also goes to some pains to highlight "invisible" characters on
differing elements by selectively escaping whitespace.  Each element is split
in to three segments (leading whitespace, body, trailing whitespace).  If
whitespace differs in a segement, that segment is whitespace escaped.

Here is an example of the selective whitespace.

Here's why the lines do or do not have whitespace escaped:

=over

=item lines 1, 4, 7 don't differ, no need.

=item lines 2, 3 differ in non-whitespace, no need.

=item lines 5, 6, 8, 9 all have subtle ws changes.

=back

Whether or not line 3 should have that tab character escaped is a judgement
call; so far I'm choosing not to.

=head1 UNICODE

To output the raw unicode chracters consult the documentation of
L<Text::Diff::Config>. You can set the C<DIFF_OUTPUT_UNICODE> environment
variable to 1 to output it from the command line. For more information,
consult this bug: L<https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=54214> .

=head1 LIMITATIONS

Table formatting requires buffering the entire diff in memory in order to
calculate column widths.  This format should only be used for smaller
diffs.

Assumes tab stops every 8 characters, as $DIETY intended.

Assumes all character codes >= 127 need to be escaped as hex codes, ie that the
user's terminal is ASCII, and not even "high bit ASCII", capable.  This can be
made an option when the need arises.

Assumes that control codes (character codes 0..31) that don't have slash-letter
escapes ("\n", "\r", etc) in Perl are best presented as hex escapes ("\x01")
instead of octal ("\001") or control-code ("\cA") escapes.
