Did not work.

Like this?

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
  (defun my/diff-refine-all-hunks ()
    (interactive)
    (condition-case nil
        (save-excursion
          (goto-char (point-min))
          (while (not (eobp))
            (diff-hunk-next)
            (diff-refine-hunk)))
      (error nil))
    (run-at-time 0.0 nil (lambda () (goto-char (point-min)))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Yep!  This does work perfectly: all hunks refined, and pointer at beginning of
buffer...

Thanks a lot for your more than precious help!

Best regards,
