Try chmod +x gdiff That should fix it.

I'd like some new options. Instead of highlighting the entire line like diff would, only high light the differences (at a character level). It would also be nice if there was an option to ignore blank lines in the comparisons. Some of these options are in a program call spiff. I don't know were spiff came from, but a graphical (as in gdiff) version of spiff would be great. Brent L.
