Description

Algorithm::Diff is a perl module that provides an interface to compute the difference between two files, two strings, or any other two lists of things. It uses an intelligent algorithm similar/identical to the one used by classical Unix diff(1). It is guaranteed to find the *smallest possible* set of differences.
