When using diff_test, it can be hard to determine why two files differ if the difference is due to whitespace (e.g. ^M at the end of lines).
Would it be possible to add more configuration to diff_test? For example using cat -A to preprocess the files and/or passing --strip-trailing-cr to diff? Being able to enable color would also be helpful, although not directly related.
