I wanna see this in IDEs mainly, but it'll be a nice feature to have in word processors, and similar applications.When closing a document (or a source file), the standard options that are available to the user are: "Save changes? Yes/no/cancel".But many times, especially when programing, I want to see exactly which changes have occured before I agree to save. So I wanna see: "Save Changes? Yes/No/Cancel/ShowDiff".
