Subject: Re: compare 2 text files - check for difference - Please help

I have a huge xml file that I am reading in after a submit routine. The 
routine fails on specific xml elements. I want to be able find every 
element that was changed by the routine through after the second submit 
routine.

I can already check if the file is different. I just want to pinpoint 
the value that is different. I have noticed that if the context has 
changed then the output will show @action=! and then the value such as 
([#<Diff::LCS::ContextChange:24309500 @action=! positions=0,0
> elements="1,2\n","1,2,3\n">) My problem is that one line can be so long that I don't see exactly which element is dissimiar. So I wanted to break each line up then search on anything returning this '@action=!'
