...or, Reuven, to get a "better-looking" but still standardized (and
'nocompatible') set of options,
vimdiff -u '$VIMRUNTIME/vimrc_example.vim' file1 file2
?
If you are on Windows (including Cygwin), you may also want to replace
"vimdiff" in the above command by either "vim.exe -d" or "gvim.exe -d"
with the .exe extension in order to bypass any *.bat wrappers. The
single quotes are essential on Unix-like shells (including Cygwin bash),
to make sure that $VIMRUNTIME is passed to Vim as-is without any
conversion by the shell.
Best regards,
Tony.
