This zip file contains ...

1. Source code for the freeware component - TDiff - written in 
   Borland's Delphi programming language. This component dramatically 
   simplify programming tasks that require calculations of 'shortest path' or 
   'longest common sequence' as typically required in file compare utilities. 

2. Two very simple demo applications (with full source code) that 
   demonstrate how the 'TDiff' component can be used in Delphi programs. 

3. A fully featured text compare utility 'TextDiff' (without source code) 
   which showcases the speed and accuracy of the TDiff component. The
   utility (and accompanying help file) requires no installation apart from
   extracting from this zip file.

4. PDF documents fully describing the principle algorithms used in both the
   new and the older TDiff component ...
	 The original TDiff component was based on:
     "An O(ND) Difference Algorithm and its Variations"
	   by E Myers - Algorithmica Vol. 1 No. 2, 1986, pp. 251-266
	 The current TDiff component is based on:
     "An O(NP) Sequence Comparison Algorithm"
     by Sun Wu, Udi Manber & Gene Myers
