A word is anything between whitespace. This is useful for +comparing two texts in which a few words have been changed and for which +paragraphs have been refilled. It works by creating two temporary files, +one word per line, and then executes diff on these files. It collects the +diff output and uses it to produce a nicer display of word differences +between the original files. |
