Description-en: show differences between files using color graphics
forensics-colorize is a set of tools to visually compare large files, as
filesystem images, creating graphics of them. It is intuitive because the
produced graphics provide a quick and perfect sense about the percentage
of changes between two files.
.
Comparing large textual files using a simple diff can produce a very big
result in lines, causing confusion. On the other hand, diff is improper
to compare binary files.
.
This package provides two command line programs: filecompare and colorize.
The filecompare command is used to create a special and auxiliary input
file for colorize. The colorize command will generate an intuitive graphic
that will make easier to perceive the level of changes between the files.
