I don't know if TextWrangler can run the Text Factories that BBEdit provides.

http://www.oofile.com.au/files/REALbasic/CleanupRBXML.sit is a Text  
Factory that cleans up the XML files to make them considerably easier  
to compare. I have been using it for a couple of years now. It  
basically removes all the editing context tags (from RB5.5.5) that  
introduce the "noise" into the comparison.

Nowadays I would be more inclined to save them both into VCF format  
and compare that. Again, using BBEdit works very nicely for me and  
choosing VBScript as the language does a moderate job of code  
colouring plus it identifies the functions in each file. I now have  
rbbas setup as an extension to trigger that "language interpretation".
