DiffInputFunction

is an option for Diff and related functions that specifies how the input expressions should be preprocessed.

Details

Diff[a,b,DiffInputFunctionfunc] is equivalent to Diff[func[a],func[b].
The default setting DiffInputFunctionIdentity will attempt to diff the original expressions.
In addition to any arbitrary function, DiffInputFunction can take the following special settings:

	"InputForm"	equivalent to ToString[#,InputForm]&
	"StandardForm"	equivalent to ExpressionCell[#]&
	"TraditionalForm"	equivalent to ExpressionCell[TraditionalForm[#]]&
