psydiff
a structural comparison tool for Python
Psydiff is a structural differencer for Python. It parses Python into ASTs, compare them, and then generate interactive HTML.
Demo
A demo of Psydiff's output (Psydiff diffing itself over a recent big change) can be found here:

Installation
- Copy the whole directory to somewhere in your file system
- Add the path to the system's "PATH variable"
Usage
Just run psydiff.py from the command line:
./psydiff.py demos/list1.py demos/list2.py
This will generate a HTML file named list1-list2.html in the current directory. You can then use your browser to open this file and browse around the code.
The HTML is a standalone entity (CSS styles and JavaScript embedded). You can put it anywhere you like and still be able to view it.
