Slightly different presentational style

Hi

I've been testing diffy and was wondering if it's possible to achieve a similar output to:

This is produced using another gem called htmldiff, the downside though is it's not as clever as diffy when it comes to highlighting characters within a word.

Essentially what I'm after is to view one version of the text with both additions and removals in it. A bit like track changes in MS Word.

Currently I'm seeing the following using :html http://img41.imageshack.us/img41/9761/highlightingstyle2.png

I think it would be pretty easy to extend Diffy to produce this kind of output. It's really a variation on what it's already doing. I'll try to find time to add this to the next release, or if you'd like to take a crack at it, I'd be happy to pull this functionality into the main gem.

Turns out this isn't so easy, but I'd definitely entertain a pull request.
