Description: generate similarity hashes to find nearly duplicate files
One of the questions that it's nice to be able to answer about a pair of files
is the degree of similarity between them. This command-line tool is useful for
estimating the "degree of similarity" between a pair of nominally sequential
files such as textfiles. The tool uses Manassas's "shingleprinting" technique.
