so this script takes a regular text file, which you will save with the filename original.md
then you make whatever edits you want to it, and save your edits under the filename final.md
and it creates output like this: jaydixit.com/jdiffs/
it's Microsoft Word track changes, without the Microsoft Word I don't think it already exists
i'm not aware of any i was going to say it reminded me of the wordperfect redlining feature that law firms used to love
I think it's very useful
that's the last thing that kept them from switching to ms word back in the 1990's
