Does anyone know of a windowed sdiff product available for X ?

I'd expect it to operate much like the UNIX sdiff command
(side-by-side diff), but use windows rather than split the screen.

For instance, one window would display fileA, another fileB.
The differences would be visually identified, e.g. highlighted, in each window.
A third window shows the selected output, which was either chosen
from fileA, fileB, or possibly some derivation of the two created by
cut/paste/edit operations.

I'm interested in both commerical and public domain products.

Thanks!  I'll post a summary if there is adequate response.
