Lisps generally favour 'give the user the power to fix features', but it's really hard to add pervasive OO after the fact. CLOS is built-in.

I've released difftastic 0.49! In this release:
* LaTeX support
* Smarter diffing in languages that prefer the outer delimiter (JSON, Lisps)
* Improved parsing for C, C++, Java and Haskell
@nihilazo @eli_oat @technomancy @csepp The thing I like about lisps is the ability to build functions around snippets until I've written a whole program. It's interactive and pleasant.
I agree that the advocacy is distracting. The book Let Over Lambda has interesting ideas but it's *so* convinced that lisp is always the best.
I sometimes find it hard to read too. It's easy for different patterns to look visually similar.
Difftastic 0.29 is out!
* A ton of optimisation (30% shorter runtime) from smaller data structures
* Improved cases where the outer delimiter is preferred (lisps, JSON)
* Better detection of binary files (thanks @OnlyXuanwo)
* Improved Perl, added Elvish
