A few days ago I wanted to compare a posted on the forum configuration to a default one.
I already made a small spreadsheet that is useful to compare two configurations side by side that allows inserting or removing cells to "align" the two configurations (I am also attaching it).
The problem being that the configuration was a "terse" export (very handy for applying/re-applying it on terminal but hard to read) so I put together another small spreadsheet capable (hopefully) of converting from "terse" to "single line", this latter being much more readable.
I happened to come across a configuration that was not compatible with terse_to_sl because of a warning about a not active interface and scripts in the export.
So in an attempt to better it and make it more compatible, I actually managed to also simplify it a little bit, now the input "terse" configuration and the "translated to single line" columns are side by side on the same sheet.
A slightly different version of Config_compare, tailored to consider "genconf" to be not different from "defconf", if the rest of the line is the same.
EDIT: UPDATED, the originally posted spreadsheet had some issues when protected, this new one has no password protection.
EDIT 26/08/2026: changed the spreadsheet so that the string that will NOT trigger the orange background can be easily changed (the default remains comment="defconf" vs. comment="genconf")
