Hah.. In the OSX console all the diff lines (+ or -) blink!

  The notation "38;5;[whatever]" or "48;5;[whatever]" is specific to an 88-color or 256-color xterm terminal. Make sure that mode is enabled. This works with the Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) version of Terminal and with MacTerm in 256-color mode. By itself, a "5m" means "blink", so maybe older Terminal versions are just dropping the parts that they don't understand. Here's a modified version that tries to adapt when xterm colors don't work: #!/usr/bin/env perl # by Kevin Grant (kmg@mac.com) my $term = (exists $ENV{'TERM'} && defined $ENV{'TERM'}) ? $ENV{'TERM'} : 'vt100'; my $is_xterm = ($term =~ /xterm/); print "\033#3BEGIN DIFF\n"; print "\033#4BEGIN DIFF\n\033#5"; while (<>) { if (/^\+/ && !/^\+\+/) { if ($is_xterm) { print "\033[48;5;149m", "\033[2K", "\033[38;5;235m", "\033[1m"; } else { print "\033[42m", "\033[2K", "\033[30m", "\033[1m"; } } elsif (/^\-/ && !/^\-\-/) { if ($is_xterm) { print "\033[48;5;52m", "\033[2K", "\033[38;5;124m"; } else { print "\033[41m", "\033[2K", "\033[37m"; } } else { print "\033[3m"; } chomp; print; print "\033[0m\n"; } print "\033#3END DIFF\n"; print "\033#4END DIFF\n\033#5"; The colors aren't quite as nice that way, but it's something.
