Further tinkering with diagnostics, following feedback!
* Two lines of context above and below now.
* The caret is included in the line below where possible.
* Syntax highlighting of keywords.
I kinda feel that smart context sizing would be better. What do you think so far?
I'm not sure if I should use the term "text diff" or "textual diff" to refer to a conventional, line-oriented diff of text in difftastic.
Any opinions? Which seems clearer to you?
I'm experimenting with diagnostics formatting.
* I've added a left margin, showing both the file name and line numbers
* I'm showing one line of context above/below the offending line.
* I'm using grey for comments.
What do you think? Is there anything you'd change?
