Try one of the bsd source repositories. An example that I'm
familiar with is the OpenBSD tree.
Thanks the clarification, I misread the answer.
Any tips for where I can find the source code for BSD diff? I found the GNU
diffutils already here: http://www.gnu.org/software/diffutils/.

I think he meant to replicate the diff functionality inside your app,
and handle the output your own way to display the results. AFAIK, you
can't call any command line programs from an iOS app...

I thought about diff, but can I use that without NSTask, etc which aren't
available on iOS?
Also came across this:
https://github.com/inquisitiveSoft/DiffMatchPatch-ObjC, which could be
useful.
Thanks for your imput,

I think you can embed code from BSD diff in your program. That is plain C and
you just need to call it using your Objective-C code.
Alternatively you can look into the implementation of BSD diff or GNU diffutils
and rewrite it using Objective-C or Swift for your project.

Is there any way to use a diff tool in an iOS app? My app at one point
needs to find the difference between two large text files, and using diff
or something similar may be a possible solution. Both files are downloaded
as NSData objects from an external source, and right now I have converted
them
