Hi Tom, Yes, perforce diff unfortunately doesn't seem to create information for added/removed files, which is incredibly annoying. If you are reviewing code which has already been committed into the depot, then you can view added/removed files from the changeset using the p4 describe command.
The format of unidiffs for new files is as follows: diff -uNr dir1/zot.txt dir2/zot.txt --- dir1/zot.txt Thu Jan 1 10:00:00 1970 +++ dir2/zot.txt Sat Jul 9 13:40:26 2005 @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ +Here is some text +Here is some more +And even more. For removed files, it will look like: diff -uNr dir2/zot.txt dir1/zot.txt --- dir2/zot.txt Sat Jul 9 13:40:26 2005 +++ dir1/zot.txt Thu Jan 1 10:00:00 1970 @@ -1,3 +0,0 @@ -Here is some text -Here is some more -And even more.

The p4 parser should then be able to handle this.
