Text Diff Checker

Compare two versions line by line and identify unchanged, added, removed and paired changed entries.

What is this tool?

A lightweight longest-common-subsequence comparison aligns matching lines, then labels unmatched content as additions, removals or adjacent changes.

How to use it

  1. Paste the original version on the left.
  2. Paste the updated version on the right.
  3. Select Compare texts.
  4. Review colored line labels and the summary.

Example

Changing beta to beta updated produces paired changed entries; adding delta produces an added line.

Is there a size limit?
