Indead that one does not work as well with diff.

diff file file2
1,3c1,3
<  *      *    :   *
<       *    *  :   
<   *      *   .  * 
- ---
>  *      *     *  *
>       *    *      
>   *      *   *  * 
10c10
<    ** Italy **    
- ---
>   ** Canada **

But I know a perl script exists that could diff them down to the exact
differancs.  But it wouldn't be very human readable.

It's a damn poor mind that can only think of one way to spell a word.
