Hello,

Thank you for your response.
I'm referring to the background color of relevant lines in side-by-side
diffs, instead of or as a complement to the < | > characters. It's kind of
hard to get a good overview without affected lines colorized.
I've never used the "vanilla" version of Viewvc. Perhaps the version
bundled with Collabnet SVN Edge doesn't support this?

It's stated on the Viewvc feature list that it supports 'Colorized,
side-by-side differences'.

Thanks,
Robert
