need freeware compare .txt program, lost my copy

[Steve St. Denis]

Several months ago I was looking for a freeware program that would compare
two (.txt) text files and print the difference from these two files too
separate file. A person sent me his internet site and I downloaded the
freeware program and it work like a charm, could this person please let me
know where I can download your program again, I had a computer crash and
lost your program and can't seem to find the copy I made.

Or if anyone else has any idea where to find the compare program could you
send me the information.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

'diff' is the commandling utility you want. There probably is a
cygwin port of this for Windows somewhere.
