Not that I was originally in this conversation anyway, but that link does look 
helpful.  It seems that those folks seem to dabble in quite a few things.

Diffutils is handy. So are many of the other packages they've
ported...such as patch (when you have to apply one you've received in
one form or another).

I'mnot sure about Windows, but on linux, or through cvs / git / most other
VCSs I use diff.

E.g. in a git repo I do:

git diff file-list

Which creates a diff of the differencs between the current files and the tip
of the branch I'm on.

Or, on the linux command prompt:

diff file1 file2

Which creates a diff of the two files.

Hello,

What tools are people using these days for finding differences in files
that
are accessible?
