Excellent little trick there. I did just that.

Here's the output from attempt #1. Method - Pull up log page, select first file, go to the bottom, set diff to Full Colored Diff.


 rcsdiff --unified=-1 -p -kk -r1.1 -r1.66 /usr/local/cvs_reps/xxx/something_something/firmware/source/filename_2.c,v
===================================================================
RCS file: /usr/local/cvs_reps/xxx/something_something/firmware/source/filename_2.c,v
rcsdiff: /usr/local/cvs_reps/xxx/something_something/firmware/source/filename_2.c,v: warning: Unknown phrases like `deltatype ...;' are present.
rcsdiff: /usr/local/cvs_reps/xxx/something_something/firmware/source/filename_2.c,v:31: unknown character `_'
rcsdiff aborted


Huh. Note also I didn't get the --context=-1 but instead got --unified=-1 

So in the same repository, same module, I then chose a file without an underscore in the filename.... and got this:


[root@cgieng4 ~]# rcsdiff --unified=-1 -p -kk -r1.1 -r1.12.2.1 /usr/local/cvs_reps/xxx/something_something/firmware/source/Si4432.h,v
===================================================================

rcsdiff: /usr/local/cvs_reps/xxx/something_something/firmware/source/Si4432.h,v: warning: Unknown phrases like `deltatype ...;' are present.

and off it went to show me the diffs. Note that when I removed the Exception debug statement from the bincvs.py file, I still didn't get the full colored listing for the file with no underscores.

Please let me know how else I can help in tracking this down.

Thanks!
Ron
