Re: Searching for a specific kind of difference with vimdiff

Hi mcc,

I assume you use vim in diffmode, don't you?

Please have a look to the ']c' command.

I guess jumping to the next difference is what you want.
Or do you want to jump only to the "blue" changes (which does mean new
package)? If so I would prefer some other way like 'diff file1 file2 | grep
"^+ "'...

Regards,
doak
