[p4] diff between two revisions

[Dave Lewis]

just a little syntax

makefile#1499 is makefile revision 1499,
but makefile at 1499 is the makefile at changelevel 1499

so, you either need to find out what the revision of makefile is
at 1499, or perhaps p4 diff2 Makefile at 1499 etc. will do it

p4 fstat Makefile at 1499 will give the revision, I believe., or
certainly p4 filelog Makefile will list all revisions and changenumbers
associated with it.
