Subject: "Find Difference" on Fragmentary Text
Thanks. The scripts seem to require the text to already be distributed to two different docs, so I'm not sure how much time it would save. The doc creation is the tedious part. 

I suppose I'm envisioning a process more like this: invite user to paste text A into a field, then paste text B into another field. Save each snippet to a new doc on desktop, and open Find Diffs pop-up with both docs chosen. I suppose I could delete them afterwards manually, that's not the bottleneck.

Is that realistic do you think?
