13 Point remains that some of us have smart enough mail clients to do the
14 colourfull diffing based on an attached diff file inline. As you can
15 understand, that is much more convenient (saves a click to another
16 window) and also persists in time. Extra bonus, allows to easily reply
17 to it using inline comments to the diff as well, without having to load
18 it up in the editor first.

20 IOW: if you want to post an url, fine, but just include the diff in your
21 email please. Thanks.
