I've had a look at that, but I haven't seen a way to get OpenOffice to
use that to automatically highlight differences. Sadly I'm not that
decent at programming anything other than php (at the moment) so I
wouldn't know how to use diff to write a plug-in. 

Neil, if you were doing this using diff, how would you use it?
