.SH "DESCRIPTION"

.PP
\fBdehtmldiff\fR creates usable diff files from HTML pages\&. This is useful in the scenario where a patch has been posted to a mailing list viewable via a web page\&.

.PP
The corrected diff is sent to standard output\&. Note that you will probably need to use the \fB\-l\fR option when applying the patch, in order to ignore any whitespace differences there may be\&.

.SH "OPTIONS"

.TP
\fB\-\-help\fR
Display a short usage message\&.

.TP
\fB\-\-version\fR
Display the version number of dehtmldiff\&.

.SH "LIMITATIONS"

.PP
The way this command works is fairly primitive; it boils down to some simple text replacements, followed by an \fBunwrapdiff\fR pass\&. As a result, all of the limitations that apply to \fBunwrapdiff\fR also apply to \fBdehtmldiff\fR\&.
