Description

This is idiff, a front-end to diff that lets you manually merge two versions of a file. It runs diff for you, and presents the results one "chunk" at a time. Idiff was written by Kernighan and Pike, and first appeared in their 1984 book The UNIX Programming Environment (Prentice-Hall). Source code is used by permission.
