Subject: compare_ok produces unlimited diffs
When compare_ok dumps unlimited differences when compare fails. In particular, when using compare_ok on binary files the output becomes unusable. There should be some limit to the diag output. (BTW, generally a nice module. Thanks!)

Test::Files might better be called Test::TextFiles. I never imagined it being used for binary files. If you have a patch which limits the output in that case, I would be happy to have it. Phil --- Guest via RT <bug-Test-Files@rt.cpan.org> wrote: Show quoted text
