Tim Peters 9ae2148ada Moved SequenceMatcher from ndiff into new std library module difflib.py.
Guido told me to do this <wink>.
Greatly expanded docstrings, and fleshed out with examples.
New std test.
Added new get_close_matches() function for ESR.
Needs docs, but LaTeXification of the module docstring is all it needs.

README

This directory contains a number of Python programs that are useful
while building or extending Python.

bgen		Generate complete extension modules from a
		description.  Still under development!

compiler        A Python source to bytecode compiler written in
                Python, including an interface for manipulating
                abstract syntax trees.  Still under development.

faqwiz		FAQ Wizard.
		See http://grail.cnri.reston.va.us/cgi-bin/faqw.py
		for a live example.

freeze		Create a stand-alone executable from a Python program.

modulator	Interactively generate boiler plate for an extension
		module.  Works easiest if you have Tk.

scripts		A number of useful single-file programs, e.g. tabnanny.py
		(by Tim Peters), which checks for inconsistent mixing
		of tabs and spaces.

unicode		Tools used to generate unicode database files for
		Python 2.0 (by Fredrik Lundh).

versioncheck	A tool to automate checking whether you have the latest
		version of a package (by Jack Jansen).

webchecker	A link checker for web sites.
