Top/bottom rather than side by side, but for all I know that's
configurable...

Subject: [h-e-w] Side-by-side file differences util?



Has anyone implemented a side-by-side file differences utility in 
emacs?  By this I mean I'd like two adjacent frames, side-by-side, with 
file A in the left frame and file B in the right.  Differences between the 
two files would be highlighted, and there would be some way to jump to the 
next/prev difference, make the left look like the right or vice versa, etc.

Emacs seems like the natural environment for such a thing.  I can't seem to 
find a good one for Windows at all, but having it in emacs seems like an 
added bonus.

Thanks,
