Because I have two nodes which were originally identical but are now
different and I want to see the differences.

My outline loads a @file called ~/.leo/t/gen which contains a @button
with several @rclick children for commonly used tasks.  So I add a new
one, @rclick diff

  selected = c.getSelectedPositions()
  open('/tmp/a_diff', 'w').write(selected[0].b)
  open('/tmp/b_diff', 'w').write(selected[1].b)
  import os
  os.system("xxdiff /tmp/a_diff /tmp/b_diff &")

which is horrible for a number of reasons but also took only moments
to write.  And now, not only does this Leo session have a visual node
diff capability, but also every future session which loads ~/.leo/t/gen.

When you can go from wanting to having a feature in less time than it
takes to write an email about it - well, that's "why Leo".

(I also have @file ~/.leo/sql and @file ~/.leo/dml for commands for
handling SQL and an XML dialect I use a lot, it's a great way to manage
little snippet functions)

Cheers -Terry
