wdiff - Summary
This project is part of the GNU Project.
The program wdiff is a front end to diff for comparing files on a word per word basis. A word is anything between whitespace. This is useful for comparing two texts in which a few words have been changed and for which paragraphs have been refilled. It works by creating two temporary files, one word per line, and then executes diff on these files. It collects the diff output and uses it to produce a nicer display of word differences between the original files.

I'm happy to announce the release of wdiff 1.1.1.
This release works around an error in the formatting of the man page. The proper fix will be in 1.2.x, but as that requires a change to translatable strings, this release here will apply a patch instead.
There are some updates to translations as well: Danish and Vietnamese have been updated, and a Serbian translation newly added.

I'm happy to announce the next release of wdiff. This release is numbered 1.0.0 in order to reflect the fact that the code has been around for a long time and is therefore considered quite mature. So consider this change not so much as a radical ...
