Hello,

I made some effort to track down a python module that could be used as
unix diff.  Currently I'm in fact popen'ing diff itself, but for I'd
like to have a self-contained utility.

I'm not comparing big files, so a Python only solution will probably be
fast enough.

Failing a ready solution, can someone perhaps point me to a description
of the algorithm, so I could implement it myself.

Thanks,

Harri
