Total Commander “compare content” like alternative?

Question

I'm searching a GUI [or CLI] tool that can produce output like the Total Commander compare content function does! For example:

Screenshot of Total Commander

Are there any that do that? It's a very handy tool and I miss it

Are you just looking for any diff tool, or is there something specific about that screenshot you want? — Michael Mrozek, May 16 '11 at 14:59
The imageshack domain is blocked here. Perhaps use SE's 'native' image site, imgur.com? — Faheem Mitha, May 16 '11 at 15:01

diff -y?

Or if what you're really after is color output try colordiff.

Any diff utility can do this for you. My personal favorite GUI tool is meld.

If you like the command line, but want a paged side-by-side comparison, try:

diff -y | less
