    php diff

    Hello,

    I'm looking for an implementation for diffing 2 (text) files and spitting
    out the output using php only. i would like to extend this to use ftp to
    diff two files on two ftp servers, or one local file & a remote ftp server.

    Anyone have any ideas on source for this before i go ahead and build it? At
    least the diff engine? a nice gui would be best, but not totally necessary.

    TIA,
    yt

      For the diff engine part:

      http://pear.php.net/package/Text_Diff

      (I've been using this for a while and it's fine)

      http://pecl.php.net/package/xdiff

      (Not pure PHP, it's a compiled extension)

      Or shell out to an external diff command.

              I wrote one using Text_Diff at work (which means I can't post the code) - it's
              not that hard, you just make your own subclass of the Text_Diff_Rende rer class
              from Text_Diff, if I remember correctly. I think there's also a couple of
              example renderers in the package that you can tweak.
