Again, "what is diff for?" Do you really need an editor to do this?
There are other programs like diff which can be used more efficiently. I have been associated with Linux kernel development team for a short period of time (in my college days..3 years back) and they used to use diff as a base for all the patch management. We are talking about tens of thousands of lines of codes here!!
UNIX was meant for small but powerful "tools" rather than a software suite!! Together these tools could do virtually everything. It all depends how familiar and capable you are to take advantage of the tools!
