Pywikipediabot with Pywikibot, the removed text is shown as red in the old
line, but the entire new line is highlighted in green. This can be visually
distracting.

-page:"Manual:Pywikibot/Compat/picasacopier.py" Pywikipediabot Pywikibot
setting username JVbot for mediawiki:mediawiki
The summary message for the command line replacements will be something
like: Bot: Automated text replacement (-Pywikipediabot +Pywikibot)

diff terminal interfaces?
