NAME

       cif-diff - A tool to compare two mmCIF files

SYNOPSIS

       cif-diff [OPTION] file1 file2

DESCRIPTION

       The mmCIF format does not specify the order in which categories or fields should be
       recorded. Using this tool, you can reorder a second file in the same way as the first
       before comparing the content making it easier to spot differences.

OPTIONS

       --category=arg
              Limit the comparison to this category, default is to show differences in all
              categories. This option can be specified multiple times.

       --max-diff-count=nr
              Display at most nr items per category. Default is 5 items, if you specify zero the
              number of items will unlimited.

              This option has no effect when the --text option is specified.

       --text Default is to display the differences in some kind of summary. But if you prefer to
              use a more graphical diff: this option will use vimdiff to display the differences.

       --icase
              Pass the ignore case option to vimdiff.

       --iwhite
              Pass the ignore white option to vimdiff.

       --verbose,-v
              Be more verbose, useful to diagnose validation errors.
