This plain text file comparison utility displays a pair of files side-by-side in a vertically-split display

ASCIIDiff Text File Comparison Utility is an easy-to-use and smart plain text file comparison utility thatdisplays a pair of files side-by-side in a vertically-split display, so that the differences between them are apparent.

There are a number of customisation options, some of which make it especially suitable for comparing program source code written in the Natural language.

But it is not limited to this purpose, and will handle any pair of text files, whether source code or data.

It also compares the text portion of binary files such as spreadsheets and word processor documents, which you can import via Paste buttons on the front panel.

It is possible to edit both files and save the results, with easy ways to merge selected changes between both sides of the comparison window.
