<td WIDTH="98%"><b>Purpose</b>
<p>The Eclipse distribution diff tool is a command line tool which compares two Eclipse based 
distributions and creates a report of the differences between them. It performs differences on
the structure of class files, but not the contents of methods. This gives the user an idea of 
what changed structurally between two builds, without having to wade through source changes.
Although the Eclipse distribution diff tool reads Eclipse distributions, it is not an Eclipse 
application.</p>
