What about fldiff (1,3MB)? It is a fully featured graphical diff with 
character
recognition. mgdiff with 800kB might have been an option as well but it
has no individual character highlighting which means that we could also
use vimdiff instead.

I would kindly welcome the inclusion of gvim!
It is far easier to work with gvim than with a console version of vim.
vim-nox might have been an alternative but it is only 200k smaller.


Best Wishes,
Elmar
