[OS X TeX] Droplatexdiff available.

[George Gratzer]

O.K., a few questions.

1. What do I need for your diff to mark up the output? (There is no  
set of instructions I could find.)

2. How would I use this for a chapter? It would be nice to send the  
volunteers a marked up chapter: here is the new version, I marked up  
what has changed.
