Description

A Tcl extension providing utilities for comparisons of strings, lists and files.

The base comparison is a Longest Common Substring algorithm based on J. W. Hunt and M. D. McIlroy, "An algorithm for differential file comparison," Comp. Sci. Tech. Rep. #41, Bell Telephone Laboratories (1976). Available on the Web at the second author's personal site: http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~doug/

It is basically an LCS diff algorithm implemented in C on top of Tcl's API, thus giving full Unicode and VFS support.
