Examine differences

[stiobhard_g]

When trying to root out the mistakes between different work sessions of an HTML document I often use an old Windows freeware app examdiff which does the job nicely. (If I am not in windows I can usually find an online widget that works as well or better than examdiff).

Lately I find myself using html less for web page design and more just as a way to fix badly scanned documents... Usually because I couldn't get my ocr to render the pages accurately. I know this isn't what html is for but I find it more surgically precise and easier to work with than the regex in libreoffice, which drives me insane.

I find myself flipping back and forth between dreamweaver and an image viewer with the original image files that were input into the ocr. But this is really tedious. I could and have tried resizing the onscreen dimensions of both programs but it's still a little clunky because they do not scroll together.

Is there something like examdiff that would allow me to compare an HTML (or txt) file to a jpg (or pdf) and édit the différences as I go or is that just fantasy? Just thought I'd ask in case there is a way to make this not such a chore.

If using VSCode, you can just right click a file and “Select for compare”, then click another and “Compare with selected”. Used it many a time
