NAME

       numinterval - Show the numeric intervals between each line in a file.

SYNOPSIS

       numinterval [-dhV] <FILE>

       | numinterval [-dhV]    (Input on STDIN from pipeline.)

       numinterval [-dhV]      (Input on STDIN.  Use Ctrl-D to stop.)

DESCRIPTION

       numinterval will calculate and display the numeric interval between one number and the next on an input
       stream.

       This can be quite useful for showing quantities of increase or decrease of data when the numbers
       themselves aren't providing you with what you want.  For instance, I wrote this program after wanting to
       see the rate of change in box office ticket sales for movies on imdb.com. ;-)

OPTIONS

           -h  Help: You're looking at it.
           -V  Increase verbosity.
           -d  Debug mode.  For developers
           -q  Don't print any warnings.  Quiet mode.
