Side-by-side view #18

Could you add an option to view the diff as a side-by-side? Example

miketheman commented 5 years ago

Hi @TriMoon ! thanks for reaching out.

I thought about this a while, and considered that this is a language syntax highlighter for a diff file - so I don't know how it might look as a side-by-side, since the content is specific to the file itself, and it doesn't have the outer context for a diff like GitHub does.

Does that make sense?

uhmmm a diff file using unified mode does have all info needed AFAIK...
