You bet. In fact, the other tool mentioned on StackExchange is on GitHub
now, with source code in C#:

https://github.com/wolfig/GecomViewComp [1]

One can probably build that with the free version of Visual Studio.

There's a commercial tool too, named GENMatcher, but it's crap, because
it doesn't match any person automatically, even if they're identical,
like in my own tree exported from RootsMagic. There was a Dutch made
program named GEDCOMpare, but that was a failure too, and today I can't
find the download anywhere.

And finally, there's also geddiff on Google Code:

https://code.google.com/archive/p/geddiff/wikis/Readme.wiki [2]

This project has a nice list of references, but the code never got
further than reading the GEDCOM(s).

cheers,

Thanks for the links. When I get to the point where I am importing lots
of GEDCOMs I may take a stab at this.
