I've updaed it recently, so I'm not sure which version you saw. But thanks. > Some remarks: > * I do not think we want a mode where changes are completely > invisible.

By default, the cursor 'sees' the deleted material, so moving right (say) sometimes does nothing. I think what is needed is a routine somewhere that puts the cursor at the end or beginning of deleted material. > * another approach similar to this would be to keep insertions and > replace deletions with a small red rectangle.
