Unlike UNIX(tm) diff, +# e.g., the fundamental notion is the longest *contiguous* & junk-free +# matching subsequence. That's what catches peoples' eyes. The +# Windows(tm) windiff has another interesting notion, pairing up elements +# that appear uniquely in each sequence. That, and the method here, +# appear to yield more intuitive difference reports than does diff. This +# method appears to be the least vulnerable to synching up on blocks +# of "junk lines", though (like blank lines in ordinary text files, +# or maybe "<P>" lines in HTML files). That may be because this is +# the only method of the 3 that has a *concept* of "junk" <wink>. +# +# Note that ndiff makes no claim to produce a *minimal* diff. To the +# contrary, minimal diffs are often counter-intuitive, because they +# synch up anywhere possible, sometimes accidental matches 100 pages +# apart. Restricting synch points to contiguous matches preserves some +# notion of locality, at the occasional cost of producing a longer diff. +# +# With respect to junk, an earlier verion of ndiff simply refused to +# *start* a match with a junk element. The result was cases like this: +# before: private Thread currentThread; +# after: private volatile Thread currentThread; +# If you consider whitespace to be junk, the longest continguous match +# not starting with junk is "e Thread currentThread". So ndiff reported +# that "e volatil" was inserted between the 't' and the 'e' in "private". +# While an accurate view, to people that's absurd. The current version +# looks for matching blocks that are entirely junk-free, then extends the +# longest one of those as far as possible but only with matching junk. +# So now "currentThread" is matched, then extended to suck up the +# preceding blank; then "private" is matched, and extended to suck up the +# following blank; then "Thread" is matched; and finally ndiff reports +# that "volatile " was inserted before "Thread". The only quibble +# remaining is that perhaps it was really the case that " volative" +# was inserted after "private". I can live with that <wink>. +# +# NOTE on the output: From an ndiff report, +# 1) The first file can be recovered by retaining only lines that begin +# with " " or "- ", and deleting those 2-character prefixes. +# 2) The second file can be recovered similarly, but by retaining only +# " " and "+ " lines. +# 3) Lines beginning with "? " attempt to guide the eye to intraline +# differences, and were not present in either input file. +# +# NOTE on junk: the module-level names +# IS_LINE_JUNK +# IS_CHARACTER_JUNK +# can be set to any functions you like. The first one should accept +# a single string argument, and return true iff the string is junk. +# The default is whether the regexp r"\s*#?\s*$" matches (i.e., a +# line without visible characters, except for at most one splat). +# The second should accept a string of length 1 etc. The default is +# whether the character is a blank or tab (note: bad idea to include +# newline in this!). +# +# After setting those, you can call fcompare(f1name, f2name) with the +# names of the files you want to compare.
