<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#toc-entry-1">Description</a></h1>
<p>This is a fork of <a class="reference external" href="http://github.com/blais/xxdiff">xxdiff</a>, a graphical file and
directories comparator and merge tool. See there for full information about this
program, including documentation and more instructions.</p>
<div class="section" id="features">
<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#toc-entry-2">Features</a></h2>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Comparing <strong>two</strong> files, <strong>three</strong> files, or two <strong>directories</strong>
(shallow and recursive);</li>
<li><strong>Horizontal diffs</strong> highlighting;</li>
<li>Files can be <strong>merged</strong> interactively and resulting output
visualized and saved;</li>
<li>Has features to assist in performing <strong>merge reviews/policing</strong>;</li>
<li>Can <strong>unmerge CVS conflicts</strong> in automatically merged file and
display them as two files, to help resolve conflicts;</li>
<li>Uses <strong>external diff program</strong> to compute differences: works with
GNU diff, SGI diff and ClearCase's cleardiff, and any other diff
whose output is similar to those;</li>
<li>Fully customizable with a resource file;</li>
<li>Look-and-feel similar to Rudy Wortel's/SGI xdiff, it is desktop
agnostic (i.e. will work equally well with KDE or Gnome);</li>
<li>Features and output that ease integration with scripts.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>xxdiff</strong> was (and probably still is) tested daily in a merge
reviewing/policing context by more than 50 engineers at <a class="reference external" href="http://www.discreet.com">discreet</a>, and since this task is a
significant part of their development process, many of the features
are a direct result of suggestions from these people while the author
was working there.</p>
<div class="section" id="unicode-and-inline-editing">
<h3><a class="toc-backref" href="#toc-entry-3">Unicode and Inline Editing</a></h3>
<p><strong>xxdiff</strong> does not support comparing files encoded with Unicode.
Also, it does not support inline editing of the diffed files. If you
need these features, you could try emacs or Meld (although both of
these lack some of the most interesting features of xxdiff).</p>

<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#toc-entry-7">Tools</a></h2>
<p><strong>xxdiff</strong> comes with a bunch of wrapper Python scripts that invoke xxdiff in
creative ways. The author has been using these for a long time now and decided
for version 3.0 to clean them up and make them a little more generic so everyone
can use them. As of version 3.2, the standalone scripts have been refactored a
great deal, to share code together and to make them more stable. All this code
is now distributed with xxdiff, in an <tt class="docutils literal">xxdiff</tt> Python package, which you can
leverage to build your own file transformation scripts around xxdiff.</p>
<p>See the document <a class="reference external" href="doc/xxdiff-scripts.html">Helper Scripts for xxdiff</a> for full
details.</p>
<p>The scripts are available in the xxdiff distribution. To install them and the
accompanying Python package, use the standard distutils procedure:</p>
<pre class="literal-block">
su - # before root
cd xxdiff-3.x
python setup.py install
</pre>
<p>Other tools can be found in the distribution under the tools/ directory (CVS,
ClearCase, etc.).</p>
