Coders know the old fc command well. However as an application, a couple of years ago I tested quite a few in this genre too, file comparison apps, the best two for me were:
* Araxis Merge
* ExamDiff Pro (Master Edition)

On the Mac, DeltaWalker is a fairly impressive option.

Deltawalker is also available for Windows. Strangely, the website does not mention Windows - except for the Buy and the Download page, where you can get a 64 bit Windows version.
When you use a Mac, you could make use of the new Mac bundle on Bundlehunt and get Deltawalker Pro for $5 (instead of $59): https://bundlehunt.com/?ap_id=macappware

One more thing: Deltawalker Pro supports comparing 2 documents to a third one (as does ExamDiff Pro). The standard edition only supports comparing 2 documents (as do most of the other file comparing tools).
But if I am not mistaken: That is not exactly what Wojciech is looking for.

Many thanks to All for the hints! However, Franz is right - I need to cross-compare multiple documents against each other.
As I mentioned, Plagiarism Checker is able to show repetitive text, but only as a percentage and is only for Windows - I need to do it on a Mac.
