I actually meant a viewer for the output of plain old "diff -u f1 f2"
to show it in alternative modes, so someone could accept diffs in unified
format and not feel inconvenienced ;-) Of course, grep plus less will get
you pretty close, if you're not fussy.

Funny, I have windiff, but I ported plain old diff and made an NT console app
out if it, and I use the latter almost 100%.
