RE: ClearCase mode

Hi! I tried to to the following: (setq clearcase-normal-diff-switches "--suppress-common-lines -y") But it seems like all the string is sent as _one_ option instead of two... What can I do?

Does this help: `clearcase-normal-diff-switches' (buffer: *Hyper Apropos*, mode: Hyper-Apropos) Customizable user variable: value: "-u" *Switches (combined into single string) passed to `clearcase-normal-diff-program' when `clearcase-use-normal-diff' is t. Usage of the -u switch is recommended to produce unified diffs, when your `clearcase-normal-diff-program' supports it. Property-list: custom-requests: nil custom-type: string standard-value: ("-u") ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- When you don't have clearcase-use-normal-diff set t to use a diff program like GNU diff, then cleardiff is used which is currently hardwired to use the switch -diff_format. You may want to report a feature request via M-x clearcase-submit-bug-report or even a patch. Best regards, Adrian Peter> Could you help me with this?
