+perl-Text-Diff (Perform diffs on files and record sets)
+diff() provides a basic set of services akin to the GNU diff utility.
+It is not anywhere near as feature complete as GNU diff, but it is
+better integrated with Perl and available on all platforms.
+It is often faster than shelling out to a system's diff executable for
+small files, and generally slower on larger files.
