Package: colordiff
Version: 1.0.4-4
Severity: wishlist

Given two diff lines like these:

  -updated by the file transfer (requries \fB\-\-checksum\fP)\&.
  +updated by the file transfer (requires \fB\-\-checksum\fP)\&.

...'colordiff' displays the first line in red, and the second in blue.

It would sometimes be better if 'colordiff' could print "requries" 
in the first line, and "requires" in the second, in some other
color; with the rest of the first line remaining red, and the second
remaining blue.  That way the part of the line changed would be more 
quickly recognized.


Hope this helps...
