gdiff(1) has been a part of IRIX for many years. It is SGI-proprietary
and was written using a now-obsolete UI toolkit, so its source isn't
available and you wouldn't want it anyway.
'xdiff' recently appeared on the second IndiZone CD. It is not to be
confused with the much less useful program of the same name posted to
comp.sources.x some time ago. IRIX 5.3 includes 'xdiff', but not its
manpage. For those without an IndiZone 2 CD, the manpage is in
ftp://viz.tamu.edu/pub/sgi/software/xdiff/. 'xdiff' didn't come with
source, but you could ask the author; his email address is in the
manpage.
'mgdiff' is a gdiff lookalike based on X11 and Motif, written by Dan
Williams <dan@sass.com>. It is in the X11R6 contrib stuff, at
ftp://ftp://ftp.x.org/pub/R6untarred/contrib/Motif/mgdiff among other
places.
