Is there a Win Python environment that provides Linux like facilities like diff (compare) and checking in and out program files?

Cygwin provides a fill Unix like environment on Windows and if you know Unix at all is a must-have addon IMHO! :-)

But iof you don;t you can use the standard XP comp commandline tool, Try HELP COMP at the OS prompt...

For version control most toos have Windows versions: RCS, CVS, SVN etc Some are even file compatible with their *nix versions.

Is there some way I might be able to simply identity my code from the original?

That depends, but COMP may be sufficient.
Othewise there are various GUI based diff tools that you can download, both freeware and shareware. Try a search on download.com or simtel or any other download site
