diff $from $to, just like cp.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ apt-file [Double TAB]

It seems for me that apt-file completion is working perfectly.

and because i never can remember if the first or the second file
is the one the resulting patch should apply to, i also use
"--from­file=" pointing to the original.

File a bug against the apt-file package, severity "minor" or "wishlist"
(could be either one, since a /etc/bash_completion.d/apt-file already
exists and I don't know if your version fixes bugs or just adds
features), and attach your patch to the report.  You can use the
'reportbug' command for this.

Just 'diff -u'.

I usually use
diff -Nur
if I have a full directory tree, but using diff -u will work equally
well for two different files.
