recommend som tools in Ubuntu

By loody at 11/26/2009 - 11:49

Dear all:
Would you please recommend some tools that can be use under Ubuntu?
1. binary files compare.
diff only will show the result of comparison of 2 binary files. Is
there any tool can tell me where the differences are and show them in
2 columns line winmerge?

2. what kind of muti-login demon that Ubuntu used?
in Ubuntu system, we can login in different console by Fn+1,2,3.....
Can we have the same feature on embedded system? If we can, what
tool is most used for multi-login on embedded system?
appreciate your help,
miloody

Console logins are handled by getty, for every tty port a getty is
started by init. If your embedded system has tty ports you can use that
too.

kompare or kdiff3 are quite good. I'm sure there are others too.
