Has anybody tried xxdiff?
It looks like a nice visual diff tool, but I'm afraid I don't have a Unix
box anywhere nearby.
Just tossed my Sparc 5 out the door 3 days ago,

(Note that I'm a diehard emacs user)
Just for the sake of argument, NeXT/Apple's FileMerge utility totally

someone came up with a free version of that!
