Howdy,
It actually produces a .tex file that is a combination of the two
files but that highlights in color and text markings, when compiled,
the differences between the files in context. I haven't tried it on
other kinds of text files. Take a .tex file of yours, duplicate it
and make changes to to and then drop them onto the script. Compile
the output .tex file and take a look.
By the way, dropping file1.tex and file2.tex onto the dropscript
gives file1-file2-diff.tex. It may give file2-file1-diff.tex in some
cases but the order should carry through to the contents of the file.
Good Luck,
Herb Schulz
