Hi Andrew,

That was one of my goals. My DIFF operates on series values, so you
should be able to use it at any lexical level. The higher you go, the
less items you have to compare, and the faster it will be. I think a
handy diff would be to compare objects and functions, maybe in a
nested manner, so you can see what elements changed and compare them,
rather than just lines. A more meaningful diff if you will.
