+    <para>Text::Diff is used to perform diffs on files and record sets. It
+    provides a basic set of services akin to the GNU <command>diff</command>
+    utility. It is not anywhere near as feature complete as GNU
+    <command>diff</command>, but it is better integrated with
+    <application>Perl</application> and available on all platforms. Text::Diff
+    is often faster than shelling out to a system's <command>diff</command>
+    executable for small files, and generally slower on larger files.</para>
