I tried to compare the files in two different directories and directed the output into another directory. I could achieve this by writing a serious commands. But when I did that I gave the file name for the diff output as difffile1,difffile2 etc., But after some time "diff" command does not work correctly. If I type diff x.txt y.txt I simply get the result as "Files x y differ". But I am not getting the output of what exactly differ as I was getting before. I think I have changed something.But I do not know what exactly I have changed. The version of diff : (GNU diffutils) 2.8.7 Can you please help me overcoming this problem?
