nodediff

This is command line tool.
Require two *.ma files arugument.

$ nodediff a.ma b.ma

This tool parse node name and node type and hierarchy. and print different between two ".ma" files.

How to install

download python file.
Change mode.
```
$ chmod 755 nodediff
```
Move to your bin path.
```
$ mv nodediff /your/bin/path
```

How to use

Print nodename and nodetype diff.

$ nodediff testdata/diff-a.ma testdata/diff-b.ma
