<FONT COLOR="#000000">My proposal to mark changed text by a background colour </FONT><BR>
<FONT COLOR="#000000">was inspired by seeing the backgrnd package. This is just a file </FONT><BR>
<FONT COLOR="#000000">backgrnd.tex from 1996 for \input backgrnd. The only documentation </FONT><BR>

<BR>
<FONT COLOR="#000000">It seems to offer both bars (change bars like the `changebar' </FONT><BR>
<FONT COLOR="#000000">package) and background. So it can probably only mark *lines* </FONT><BR>

<BR>
<FONT COLOR="#000000">Getting background for single *words* again can be achieved with </FONT><BR>

<FONT COLOR="#000000">grfguide.pdf (grfguide.tex) uses</FONT><BR>

<FONT COLOR="#000000"> \colorbox{mygrey}{like this}</FONT><BR>

<FONT COLOR="#000000">Sorry, somebody else must give additional help with appropriate </FONT><BR>

<BR>
<FONT COLOR="#000000">I see that the `changes' package has commands including colouring, </FONT><BR>
<FONT COLOR="#000000">and strinking out. It has \added, \deleted, \replaced, \listofchanges </FONT><BR>
