Agreed.. I have never had qualms about spending money for good software. Anyway, as the OP, I never even thought of money as a limiter in this.. I’m just a bit frustrated trying to not only compare files, but to be able to chart differences to their origin. I appreciate the discussion.
@Rich, I also really like BBEdit.. Thanks!

How many equivalent billable hours of your time would $50 work out to, compared to how much time the tool would save? If the answer is "yes", then complaining about price seems specious to me. And if the answer is "no", then by all means carry on. :-)
