What would be the best way to convert the regular (unix) diff output
into XML?
Are there any diff "libraries" available?

Searching CPAN for diff returns tons of things most of which are
probably *not* what you're looking after since the term is
unfortunately so generic... But hopefully instead of parsing the
output of diff you may generate diff information yourself e.g. with
Text:
iff and then produce your XML from there, with the aid of andXML dedicated module. It all really depends on *how* you want the diff
output to be in "converted in XML".

The problem is, i'm dealing with very large files here, 75+MB - 1GB+,
and the only utility that seems to be able to compare these is bdiff
(I'm on the Solaris platform).
Can Text:
iff handle very large files?I'll try it out still. Thanks!

It turns out Text:
iff is taking a little too long to compare two77MB files.
Does Perl provide any way to diff very large files?

77Mb files do not look like generic ones. Are they plain text? What
kind of diff algorithm do you have in mind? Did you additionally check
CPAN? Lots of gems abound there anyway!
