Feature Request: Better support for recursive diffs

[peterstory]

If you do a recursive diff to compare two directories, the output includes lines like:

Only in DIR_NAME: FILENAME

It would be great if the syntax could be modified to emphasize these lines in some way. Without emphasis, it's easy to overlook them, because the colored lines stand out much more. Perhaps bolding them would work well?

Can you provide such an example in more complete form, so there's something to test it against?

old and new versions.zip Sure thing!

Here is the output of running diff -ru old_version new_version:

diff -ru old_version/file_a.txt new_version/file_a.txt
--- old_version/file_a.txt  2016-09-30 10:55:30.000000000 -0400
+++ new_version/file_a.txt  2016-09-30 10:56:13.000000000 -0400

 It contains a lot of useful data.

@peterstory Thanks!

I've got a simple fix ready, where it uses the theme's colors adds bold to it and uses the function syntax highlighter. Here's what it looks like:

Solarized Dark

One Light

Atom Light

Let me know if you have any other thoughts before I release this in a few days.

That looks really great! Thanks for making that improvement!

Released. Enjoy!
