List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Xref: main.gmane.org gmane.emacs.devel:1989 X-Report-Spam: http://spam.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.devel:1989 This basically means a diff is required that compares line by line and that allows to say "next word" from version A or "rest of line" from version B is wanted. For something like this, and in particular for correcting OCR, I think a completely different program with a different UI is what you want, more like an extended M-x compare-windows than like an extended ediff. I will send mail to fetch that URL. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
