+NAME
+ vimdiff - edit two or three versions of a file with Vim
+ and show differences
+
+SYNOPSIS
+ vimdiff [options] file1 file2 [file3]
+
+ gvimdiff
+
+DESCRIPTION
+ Vimdiff starts Vim on two (or three) files. Each file
+ gets its own window. The differences between the files
+ are highlighted. This is a nice way to inspect changes
+ and to move changes from one version to another version of
+ the same file.
+
+ See vim(1) for details about Vim itself.
+
+ When started as gvimdiff the GUI will be started, if
+ available.
+
+ In each window the 'diff' option will be set, which causes
+ the differences to be highlighted.
+ The 'wrap' and 'scrollbind' options are set to make the
+ text look good.
+ The 'foldmethod' option is set to "diff", which puts
+ ranges of lines without changes in a fold. 'foldcolumn'
+ is set to two to make it easy to spot the folds and open
+ or close them.
+
+OPTIONS
+ Vertical splits are used to align the lines, as if the
+ "-O" argument was used. To use horizontal splits intead,
+ use the "-o" argument.
+
+ For all other arguments see vim(1).

+AUTHOR
+ Most of Vim was made by Bram Moolenaar, with a lot of help
+ from others. See ":help credits" in Vim.
