difflib operates on the lists, but it should be possible to use arbitrary generators. This will require internal limit on buffer size that has a side advantage of limiting difflib to available memory. |

If you allow me to rephrase your feature request to “difflib should allow arbitrary iterators that yield lines”, I’m +1. Adjusting the version and adding tim_one to nosy as per py3k/Misc/maintainers.rst |

A quick look at the code doesn’t immediately tells me that difflib accepts sequences, not only lists. I’m not sure iterators are accepted too. What specific functions or methods have you found too strict? |
