HTH:

Help on method __init__ in module difflib:
__init__(self, linejunk=None, charjunk=None) unbound difflib.Differ
method
Construct a text differencer, with optional filters.
The two optional keyword parameters are for filter functions:
- `linejunk`: A function that should accept a single string
argument,
and return true iff the string is junk. The module-level
function
`IS_LINE_JUNK` may be used to filter out lines without visible
characters, except for at most one splat ('#'). It is
recommended
to leave linejunk None; as of Python 2.3, the underlying
SequenceMatcher class has grown an adaptive notion of "noise"
lines
that's better than any static definition the author has ever
been
able to craft.
- `charjunk`: A function that should accept a string of length 1.
The
module-level function `IS_CHARACTER_JUNK` may be used to filter
out
whitespace characters (a blank or tab; **note**: bad idea to
include
newline in this!). Use of IS_CHARACTER_JUNK is recommended.
