and when I do a diff i get a IO object back… Not sure exactly how to
get what’s in it… any ideas? thanks all

Could you post some code and/or output? Your jargon is impenetrable.

You should be able to call #read on your IO object to slurp the entire
contents. IO is standard library, so you can find docs in all the usual
places. I’d start here:

Good luck!
