I got useful results doing something like this: Get new: curl http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Ada_Style_Guide > new.html Get old: curl http://www.adaic.com/docs/95style/zip/ > aqs95_html.zip unzip aqs95_html.zip cd aqs95_html cat sec_1.html sec_2.html sec_3a.html sec_3b.html sec_4.html sec_5a.html sec_5b.html sec_6a.html sec_6b.html sec_7a.html sec_7b.html sec_8a.html sec_8b.html sec_9.html sec_10.html sec_11.html > old.html Open both in browser. Copy and paste text to new.txt and old.txt. Open in favorite editor's diff mode, ignoring spaces. -- John B. Matthews trashgod at gmail dot com
