Does it provides only chars diff?

I would like to know if there is some configuration for accept ONLY char diff like: http://kpdecker.github.io/jsdiff/

So this way it keeps all in one unique text, instead of a duplicate text

Thanks!

The html output does highlighting of character differences between lines (much like github's diffs) though it doesn't do a pure character diff mode like you describe. I'd definitely be interested in a pull request that adds this functionality (probably as a new formatter).

Is this like git diff --color-words=.?

More or less. There's a few examples of the output from way back at http://www.drasticcode.com/2010/12/9/making-diffy-a-little-less-creative.

I'm also interested in this functionality, as my use case is diffing long paragraphs of soft-wrapped text, rather than short lines of code.
