Incorrect compare of ASCII text files with CRLF, CR line terminators - wrong highlighting of the differences
Hello.
Here is the pair of files showing the issue: file1.txt file2.txt
Compared using diff gives correct output:
diff *.txt

Comparing using meld 3.20.0 (from Kubuntu 19.04 AMD64's repository) gives incorrect output:
After using dos2unix on these files meld can compare files correctly.
Thanks.
