Hats are fun, but reopening questions that should remain closed, just to collect a hat, is taking things too far. Please refrain from doing this.

@Dennis I can't imagine which question you mean

phase

it do nothing

Dennis

@Mego It's more than one question... :/

Anonymous

@phase Did it output to a file? Or maybe there's no difference

Alex A.

@phase Is diff in your path?

phase

23:10

@Mego there's a difference :\

Alex A.

On Windows I think the command is where, so try where diff.

phase

@AlexA. diff --help works fine

Alex A.

OIC

phase

@AlexA. where: command not found

Dennis

If diff prints nothing, the files should be identical.

Alex A.

23:11

I guess it isn't where on Windows.

@AlexA. He's using MSYS

Dennis

@phase Try diff -s.

Alex A.

@Mego Idk what that is

@phase Too late, you already read the words.

Alex A.

You cannot escape. The void is never gonna give you up.

phase

(......................) <- my mind after that

Anonymous

@AlexA. But I will never give up the void, either. For when the void becomes attached to one's self, one's self becomes attached to the void back.

Alex A.

23:48

It's never gonna let you down.

It will certainly never run around.

And desert you.
