Hello rebol-list, does anybody has some script that compares two files as it's for example in the Windows Commander? Or at least some idea how to make it? thanks oldes

Hi Oldes, << does anybody has some script that compares two files as it's for example in the Windows Commander? Or at least some idea how to make it?

I don't know what kind of compare it does, but if it's doing something like DIFFing the files then, yes, I have the mechanics of DIFF working. I haven't done any visualizations for it yet, and it's slow for large files, but it's a start. Mail me directly if you're interested. --Gregg

It's only little, but try 'compare, in http://www.lexicon.net/anton/rebol/library/dir-utils.r (it's at the bottom). Anton.
