    NAME
         rcsdiff - compare RCS revisions

    SYNOPSIS
         rcsdiff [ -biwt ] [ -cefhn ] [ -rrev1 ] [ -rrev2 ] file ...

    DESCRIPTION
         Rcsdiff runs diff (1) to compare two revisions of each RCS
         file given.  A file name ending in ',v' is an RCS file name,
         otherwise a working file name. Rcsdiff derives the working
         file name from the RCS file name and vice versa, as
         explained in co (1). Pairs consisting of both an RCS and a
         working file name may also be specified.

         All options except -r have the same effect as described in
         diff(1).

         If both rev1 and rev2 are omitted, rcsdiff compares the
         latest revision on the trunk with the contents of the
         corresponding working file. This is useful for determining
         what you changed since the last checkin.

         If rev1 is given, but rev2 is omitted, rcsdiff compares
         revision rev1 of the RCS file with the contents of the
         corresponding working file.

         If both rev1 and rev2 are given, rcsdiff compares revisions
         rev1 and rev2 of the RCS file.

         Both rev1 and rev2 may be given numerically or symbolically.

    EXAMPLES
         The command

    	     rcsdiff  f.c

         runs diff on the latest trunk revision of RCS file f.c,v and
         the contents of working file f.c.
