A method and system for merging a first file with a second file to produce an output file, wherein the first and second files are uniquely modified versions of an original file, are discussed. In a preferred embodiment, a computer program can be efficiently developed with versions in multiple natural languages because modifications made in the original version are identified and incorporated into translated versions. The first and second files contain text instructions for controlling a computer system to output text in respective natural languages, and graphics instructions for controlling a computer system to output graphics. A merge utility determines the differences and similarities between the first and second files by comparing the text and graphics instructions of the files.
