What feature would you like to see?

The ability to diff two selections, instead of whole hex dumps.

How will this feature be useful to you and others?

The algorithms arent good enough and im not smart enough to write my own, so being able to select a section on the left file in the diffing tab, one on the right, and then press a button to have the computer tell me what differences if any there are between the sections i selected, will be really helpful.

Request Type

  • I can provide a PoC for this feature or am willing to work on it myself and submit a PR

Additional context?

Edit: I realized i can do this with selection views, but, thats REALLY cumbersome. Please let me just select bits in one file, select bits in another, press a button or hotkey and it shows me what the differences are. In the diffing view it'd be easiest to get this working, but it should just be as simple as two selections and a button press.
