RE: https://social.vlhl.dev/objects/f995db8c-6d75-45e3-b704-0a01859e22fb

i sent defer v10 to gcc, fixing some stuff, typos, and updating the document number for the ts (to n3928)
the very same day, a new revision of the ts is uploaded to open-std... (to n4001)

@navi Hopefully just typos too (or not too significant wording) ^^

Also reminds me that I haven't tried app-text/diff-pdf or app-text/diffpdf yet, probably quite useful for WG14 stuff as most participants upload PDFs.

@lanodan @navi honestly the way i'd go is pdf2txt and regular diff on it

@SRAZKVT @navi True, could work pretty well, at least with *roff/weasyprint/latex/… it tends to.

@lanodan @navi well considering specification documents are mostly just text, extracting that text should be fine

and anyone writing up a specification would probably know better than using an image based pdf because that's impossible to search through

@SRAZKVT @lanodan as long as formatting changes in the pdf doesn't change linebreaks on the text output, it should work well

@navi @SRAZKVT Well otherwise git diff --no-index --word-diff

@lanodan @navi i wish word-diff was a part of regular diffutils

@SRAZKVT @navi Yeah, I might just extract git-diff code to make the system diff(1), same for like patch(1).

@lanodan @navi at one point i'll make my own diff utility

actually i already kinda have one (in java as part of my toy vcs), i can port it to something more reasonable easily enough

@SRAZKVT @navi @exa Wow Haskell…
Well not in pkgsrc (aka NetBSD ports) and probably even less in illumos and bootstrapping GHC is a pain in the ass so I also don't have it on my gentoo machines.
