* "That'd be cool if it worked, but at least in my case, it doesn't" --It
works if you put line numbers at the beginning of each line--then it
highlights the diff per line in both buffers/in both files--you do "Mx
ediff-buffers" on--I know it works if you do--I tested it before I posted.
I usually use "nl" (UNIX) to do this (quoting myself):
...
nl sanskrit-song.txt > sanskrit-song_line-numbers-at-front.txt
...
* Also, Thanks Nick for the pointing to notes on how to translate the
english/roman script etc. and the updating of views related to this thread:
"updated a thread on gnu.emacs.help with those
suggestions: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.help/83724
