Hi, Just a suggestion for ediff.
It currently does word-granularity, and does it very well. Character granularity would probably be too much work compared to what it would provide. However, there's an intermediate: remove the common characters from the beginning and end of the word which are common to both versions. For example, -some word +some words could easity see that just the "s" is different. On the other hand, on this example: -1234xxxx1234 +1234yxxy1234 it would still consider xxxx Vs yxxy to be the "different" part of the word, although the xx in the middle didn't change: start by the beginning, and stop at the first different character, and similarly from the end. It would be very usefull to me at least it two situations: identify at a glance the trivial typo fixes (plural/singular, ...), and identify at a glance the changes in number of repeated characters (like transforming ")))))))" into "))))))))", which would just highlight one closing parenthesis) Thanks, -- Matthieu _______________________________________________ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
