SIGPIPE panics

Using tag/latest-commit

diffutils diff /etc/pacman.conf /dev/null | :

thread 'main' (39158) panicked at src/diff.rs:94:41:
called `Result::unwrap()` on an `Err` value: Os { code: 32, kind: BrokenPipe, message: "Broken pipe" }
note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace

Yes, I have noticed this .unwrap() on io before.

What is the desired behavior? Let this pass, because it is intentionally?

        if let Err(e) = io::stdout().write_all(&result) {
            // let broken pipe pass, report other errors
            if e.kind() != io::ErrorKind::BrokenPipe {
                eprintln!("{e}");
                return ExitCode::FAILURE;
            }
        }

I am also working on an optimized error handling with enums to make it library friendly.

[GunterSchmidt]

I researched your hint and found uutils/coreutils#9657, so I just copied that behavior and added PR #194. Could you please check that.

[oech3]

It should be able to import uucore instead of copy and pasting.

[GunterSchmidt]

Yes, that is what I did. I still needed to implement the imported functionality.
