Ok, that is a start. We know ActiveState and Win7.
From your original post, your requirements are:
- Output is to be a 3rd file containing the differences between original XML and corrected XML
- Your changes may be as small as the spelling of a single word.
What other differences would you want to capture?
- Will a line by line compare work for you?
- Do you expect larger changes, such as reordering of lines, replacement of lines/sections of the XML?
- What do you expect the resultant file to look like? (line_number, orig_line, mod_line, change_txt...
- I guess that leads to the question, what are you going to do with the output you generate? How will you use it?
I see from some of your previous postings that you do know some Perl. You really do need to provide more info when you ask questions though. See How do I post a question effectively?. It will help others to help you more effectively.
Best of luck ...

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
