GNU diffutils; reviewing options of alt diff engine, maybe bsd-diff.

Dear @adamyg Many thanks for include diff and thus you make our life easier!

mcwin32 currently assumes a Unix style diff (GNU only) is within the path; with explicit use of "Line Group Formats' options. Shall consider options.

So, if understood correctly, shall I have to install a diff version suitable for win32?? Can you suggest me a good one?

Well following your suggestion, I installed GNU diff in my Windows installation and I put the path to diff.exe in the Windows environment path. Now when I type diff --help in any cmd I got the proper response. Even at the mcwin32 prompt if I type diff --help I got response.
But mcwin32 does not work, give me the same error: "Two files are needed to compare" although I have specify the two files
What else I need to setup?
Thanks

"Two files are needed to compare" is a generic error on failure.
Current internal diff command line is not suitable for popen() shell, reviewing
diff -a --old-group-format='%df%(f=l?:,%dl)d%dE\n' --new-group-format='%dea%dF%(F=L?:,%dL)\n' \
--changed-group-format='%df%(f=l?:,%dl)c%dF%(F=L?:,%dL)\n' --unchanged-group-format='' filea fileb

Dear Sir,
Sorry but my knowledge is not that much in this subject. If you want to try something give me specific information. By the way I tried to found bsd-diff for Windows but I found nothing.
