This tool can be used to compare textfiles and display the changes in them.
It is also possible to export the result as a .html file.

Changes in backups of a scriptfile

By clicking "use active script" the filename of the current script in the editor is put into the second inputfield. Furthermore, all backups of the script that are available in the same directory as the scriptfile are displayed in a list. On doubleclicking an entry you can select this backupfile for a comparison.
