  • Compare 2 files:
    sdiff path/to/file1 path/to/file2
  • Compare 2 files, ignoring all tabs and whitespace:
    sdiff -W path/to/file1 path/to/file2
  • Compare 2 files, ignoring whitespace at the end of lines:
    sdiff -Z path/to/file1 path/to/file2
  • Compare 2 files in a case-insensitive manner:
    sdiff -i path/to/file1 path/to/file2
  • Compare and then merge, writing the output to a new file:
    sdiff -o path/to/merged_file path/to/file1 path/to/file2
