I use emacs 23.1 on a windows xp box. No matter what ediff method I
use (M-x ediff-buffers or the menu bar "Tools | Compare" etc) to
compare buffers (or files) I get the message "Searching for program:
no such file or directory, diff".
However in my ~/emacs-23.1/lisp/ directory there is a file called
diff.el along with diff-mode.el There is also ediff.el and 10 variants
such as ediff-hook.el
The emacs ediff manual says the required files are loaded upon need
but a (require 'diff) and (require 'ediff) in ~/.emacs can be used.
That made no difference for me.
Thanks in advance for any help. Bill
