| Is it possible to diff $variable1 $variable2?
The content of variable1 and variable2 is the result of a few commands
on the content of files. So rather than putting the output of
processing those files to temporary files just to perform the diff I
figured I'd ask if the above was possible.
I've tried:
diff `echo "$variable1"` `echo "$variable2"`
with no luck.

Man's reach must exceed his grasp, for why else the heavens?
