CVS diff -n

When comparing the working version of a file against a version in the
repository and the RCS style diff flag (-n) is specified, the output of the
command is information which would allow you to convert the file in the
repository to the working file.  Is there any way to make this do the
reverse, that is, produce the differences that need to be applied to the
working version to get the version in the repository?

Incase anyone is wondering why you would ever want to do such a thing, I
have a diff viewer which takes a source file and an RCS diff to produce a
graphical display of the changes.

Matt.
