Walking the line here, I know, but... How does StackOverflow show the revision changes in the diff-like format they use.
I don't care about SO per-se, it's just a convenient way to describe my requirement. I have an audit history of changes to a text field. I'd like to show the changes the same way SO shows revision history changes. I recall a SO podcast where Jeff discussed it, but can't find it in the transcripts and have no idea what podcast. IIRC, it's not .net based, maybe Python?
This is for end-user consumption so anything that looks like a unix-like diff is out. Tempting to show two blocks and text, old and new and let them figure it out, but the SO revision history is sooo much nicer.
Thx.
