Thanks for the reply!

I don't remember the name of the utility that I used to use in the
Microsoft world, but it was very nice in showing changes within lines
or paragraphs, using underline and crossout (wrong name) ...

Aside: I'm not sure I can show crossout in an email, so will precede
and end it with "-".

The utility also showed a vertical line at the beginning of either a
line or paragraph that had changed.

In your later reply you were helped by debian-user@howorth.org.uk to
have recalled the MS application called MS-Word. I had used it too
till 2008. It was called "show/hide Corrections" that had to be
activated from the Options menu. It would strike through (not
underline) changed lines/words and mark the corrected parts in red.

Best wishes,
Rajib
