Description-en: robust algorithms for synchronizing plain text (Python 3 module)
The Diff Match and Patch libraries offer robust algorithms to perform the
operations required for synchronizing plain text.
.
* Diff: Compare two blocks of plain text and efficiently return a list of
differences.
* Match: Given a search string, find its best fuzzy match in a block of plain
text. Weighted for both accuracy and location.
* Patch: Apply a list of patches onto plain text. Use best-effort to apply
patch even when the underlying text doesn't match.
.
This package provides the Python 3 version of the module.
