Do you have a lot of columns @watho? If not too many --all-columns
might be adequate - it will turn off pruning of unchanged columns.
Yes, over 50. That's not an option.
Thx for the quick answer.
Hmm it has been a while since I looked at this, but I'd have expected the leftmost columns to be shown by default. Is line number an explicit column in your diff? If not, the --index
flag may be what you are looking for, it makes the row and column mappings explicit, and the row mappings include corresponding row numbers in the two tables:
$ daff --index data.csv data2.csv
@:@, ,A:A,B:B,...,I:I,J:J
,@@ ,a ,b ,...,i ,j
,...,...,...,...,...,...
2:2, ,101,2 ,...,9 ,10
3:3,→ ,103,2 ,...,9 ,10→100
Somehow i missed this option and created my own rownumber column. Looking at the code the --index flag correspondents to the flag always_show_order
on CompareFlags, right? I will try this.
Hi,
is it possible to always show a column in the diff? I am comparing excel sheets with 10.000 rows and more and need the line number for context. Otherwise it is impossible to know where the difference inside the sheet is.
