1.1 文件比较
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_comparison
文件比较是数据对象（通常是文本文件，例如源代码）之间差异和相似性的计算和显示。
一些广泛使用的文件比较程序是diff，cmp，FileMerge，WinMerge，Beyond Compare和File Compare。
1.2 文档比较
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Document_comparison
文档比较（也称为红线或黑线）是一种计算机过程，通过该过程可以识别同一文档的两个版本之间的更改，以进行文档编辑和查看。文档比较是法律和金融行业的常见任务。
基于软件的文档比较过程将参考文档与目标文档进行比较，并生成一个第三文档，该文档指示（通过彩色突出显示或通过不同的字体特征）已添加到其中的信息（文本，图形，公式等）。或从参考文档中删除以生成目标文档。
用于比较的常见文档格式包括文字处理文档（例如Microsoft Word），电子表格，演示文稿（例如PowerPoint）和可移植文档格式（PDF）文档。
