Open old revision, merge new one into it - it will highlight changes. -- I love the accent: \ufffdMedicine Square Godden.\ufffd -- [link\|http://www.lileks.com/bleats/archive/04/0804/083104.html\|James Lileks]

I found a side-by-side tool for it, but the free download doesn't tell you anywhere what it will eventually cost. Looks like something written in spare time between classes, too. === Implicitly condoning stupidity since 2001.

Somewhere in the bowels of reviewer toolbar there is Reviewing Pane option that brings all the changes in one list below the text. -- I love the accent: \ufffdMedicine Square Godden.\ufffd -- [link\|http://www.lileks.com/bleats/archive/04/0804/083104.html\|James Lileks]
