Media type for output of POSIX "diff" utility

[Julian Reschke]

Hi,

I think it would be good to have a specific media type for the output of 
the POSIX "diff" tool (see 
<http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/000095399/utilities/diff.html>).

Questions:

- Am I missing something (meaning, is there already one)?

- Were there previous attempts to to this that failed? (why?)

- Would the specification at 
<http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/000095399/utilities/diff.html> be 
sufficient as specification of the contents of the file?

- Would it make sense to define individual types for the different diff 
output formats (simple, context, ...), or would that be something for a 
type parameter?

Feedback appreciated,

Julian
