Hi all<div><br></div><div>The current diffing produces some fairly strange results from time to time. I was wondering how much work it would be to make it work for a word by word diff, rather than letter by letter. I've a quick scan through the diff-ing engine, but it looks fairly complicated and can't figure out how much of this is a copy of <a href="http://code.google.com/p/google-diff-match-patch">http://code.google.com/p/google-diff-match-patch</a> and how much has changed.</div>
<div><br></div><div>In the example below, </div><div><table class="table">
<tbody><tr class="row">
<td valign="top" dir="ltr" class="cell"><br> "And God saw th<u>at th</u>e light <font class="strike"><b>, that it was
good : and God divid</b></font><u>was good. And God separat</u>ed the
light from the darkness<font class="strike"> </font> "<br><br>The new diff would hopefully not chop "that and "the" in the first occurrence above. It would not chop "divid" off either, but rather have longer words, which would in turn make things slightly more readable.<br>
<br></td></tr></tbody></table></div><div>(bold indicates strike through)</div><div><br></div><div>Chris</div><div><br></div>
