>Description:
	Diff program from 2.11BSD unix ported to FreeBSD.  This
	program can process large files with less memory.  GNU Diff
	often can not work with files larger than 33 % of datasize
	(from limit) due to memory exhaustion.  If you work with
	files that large or larger, you will need this version of
	diff.
>How-To-Repeat:
	
>Fix:

# This is a shell archive.  Save it in a file, remove anything before
# this line, and then unpack it by entering "sh file".  Note, it may
# create directories; files and directories will be owned by you and
# have default permissions.

XThis is the original diff program from 2.11BSD.  It works better
Xwith very large files on systems with datasize limits.
X
XDefault FreeBSD limits datasize to 524288 kbytes.  This means that
XGNU diff processes that require more than this much ram will fail.
XThe 2.11BSD diff did not load the files in core and could operate
Xon considerably less ram.
