采用HtmlDIff()類的make_file()方法就可以生存美觀的HTML文檔。示例：
對 https://www.cnblogs.com/hwlong/articles/9087658.html示例一simple1.py中的代碼按以下進行修改
d = difflib.Differ() #創建Differ()對象
diff = d.compare(text1_lines,text2_lines) #采用compare方法對字符串進行比較
print('\n'.join(list(diff)))
替換成：
d = difflib.HtmlDiff() #創建HtmlDiffer()對象
print(d.make_file(text1_lines,text2_lines)) #采用make_file方法對字符串進行比較
#simple2.py代碼(修改后的代碼)
#!/usr/bin/env python import difflib text1 = """text1: #定義字符串1 This module provides classes and functions for comparing sequences. including HTML and context and unified diffs. difflib document v7.4 add string""" text1_lines = text1.splitlines() #以行進行分割，以便進行對比 text2 = """text2: #定義字符串2 This module provides classes and functions for comparing sequences. including HTML and context and unified diffs. difflib document v7.5 add string""" text2_lines = text2.splitlines() d = difflib.HtmlDiff() #創建HtmlDiffer()對象 print(d.make_file(text1_lines,text2_lines)) #采用make_file方法對字符串進行比較
運行python3 simple2.py > diff.html,在使用瀏覽器打開diff.html文件，如下圖所示，HTML文檔包括了行號、差異標志、圖例等信息，可讀性增強了很多。
