If so, you are missing task markup, a task description, a goal, or really anything to help someone implement an entry. Also I assume this is Gnu diff-utils diff? If so, you are aware of the <code>--color</code> option? As in: <code>diff --color FILE1 FILE2</code> What's the point? --[[User:Thundergnat|Thundergnat]] ([[User talk:Thundergnat|talk]]) 23:43, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
 
Agreed, it could be as simple as describing what you do to what input and asking others to do the same. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] ([[User talk:Paddy3118|talk]]) 13:54, 27 October 2020 (UTC)
 
 
== possible rename of the task ==
 
I suggest a possible renaming of the task:
 
'''Colorize different parts of some text to be displayed'''
 
--- or something along those lines. &nbsp; I'm assuming that some colorized text being displayed &nbsp; (or parts of the text) &nbsp; is to be colorized &nbsp; (possibly with more than one section, &nbsp; and possibly with each section being a different color). &nbsp; &nbsp; -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 14:05, 27 October 2020 (UTC)
 
: If we are just to demonstrate colorizing parts of text in a terminal, would not [[Checksumcolor]] already cover that? I reiterate; What's the point? (Not to Gerard, to the original author) --[[User:Thundergnat|Thundergnat]] ([[User talk:Thundergnat|talk]]) 16:43, 27 October 2020 (UTC)
