A simple diff is all that's done right now (well, basically at least;
basically etc-update can be seen as a sort of front-end to diff).
To throw my two cents in here, I'd like etc-update to use vimdiff,
Then configure etc-update to use vimdiff. See /etc/etc-update.conf
which is another front-end to diff, and much more intuitive to me.
However, doing so would probably enrage emacs users, who, presumably,
have a front-end to diff from emacs as well; so maybe an option for
vimdiff or emacs-diff -- I bet either would be better than the current
script.
No, it would NOT be *BETTER*. One of the nice things of the current
default setup is, that it is rather basic.
