The modern software industry has a tradition of
copying and pasting source code. This is the single
most widely distributed method of producing less-than-
perfect programs. Thousands of large and expensive
projects contain literally millions of identical or
nearly identical fragments of code costing millions of
dollars per year for additional support and
maintenance. Enter AntiCutAndPaste!
AntiCutAndPaste is designed to search for plagiarism -
text fragments that have been copied and pasted in
programming language source code or plain text. It is
tested on sources from large C++, Visual Basic,
Delphi, Java, and C# projects. Text processing
algorithms used are very fast and can handle up to
three million C++ code lines in one minute on ordinal
PC computer. Minor modifications of code are ignored
during the search. Both GUI and command line versions
of program are included in the installation. Reports
are sorted conveniently by the total size of all
similar fragments and there is many report
