Compare File Contents

Paste two files’ text to see added, removed and unchanged lines.

Good to know

Paste the text contents of each file. Compare lines in their original order, including whitespace. Browser text boxes normalize line endings, so this is not a byte-for-byte comparison of the original files. Added lines start with +, removed lines with - (hyphen), and unchanged lines with two spaces. Missing final newlines are marked. This compares text only, with a one-million-character combined limit and a bounded processing time. Nothing is uploaded, saved or executed.

Example: A contains apple and pear; B contains apple and plum. The report keeps apple, removes pear and adds plum.
