diff

Hi,

I'm looking for a diff implementation in Java. I've seen that Python has its own SequenceMatcher (with difflib), which is exactly what I need... in Java.

Is there any portage? Or is there any other class/library that performs the same in Java?

If not, where can I find the source code of that difflib (if free as in speech) to make my own implementation of SequenceMatcher in Java ?

Unfortunately, Apache Commons Lang doesn't help me much.

Thanks!
