Guiffy (pronounced like Goofy, for those of you wondering) is a file compare/merge (dIFF - like) tool with a GUI implemented in Java. Guiffy is shareware, developed by Bill Ritcher. Guiffy is implemented entirely in Java 1.2 utilizing all the latest Swing components. Since Guiffy is a Java application, its available for essentially all Java 1.2 platforms.
Guiffy can be used to compare/merge text files of any sort and has virtually no file size limits. Guiffy also compares folders and includes a command line interface for use in scripts.
