Nice stuff to do with diff commands:
====== Compare output of 2 commands ======
===== Basic =====
diff <(command 1) <(command 2)
===== Side by side =====
diff -y <(command 1) <(command 2)
You can control the width of the columns
diff -y --width= XXX<(command 1) <(command 2)
Where XXX is the number of columns
