Highlight changes instead of underlining them #99

Closed arbitrary-dev closed 1 week ago

arbitrary-dev commented 4 years ago

Is there a way to highlight changes instead of underlining them?

Because underlining is hard to spot, it'd be nice to have an option to highlight them as is done in case of removals/deletions.

What is the meaning of underlined changes vs highlighted changes anyway?

Looks better to me:

Only after word-level diffs are provided, switching to reversed color is more human readable than underline for changed text. This is now addressed in commit 5126c52. Check out the latest revision!
