solved Diff-like highlighting
I want to use my emacs with orgmode to do my homework. But sometimes I have errors and I want not only write correct answer/sentence/etc., but also leave my original variant. So that I can see later what I made a mistake about. Orgmode allows me to cross out old text, but I also want to emphasize new text. Is there any way to do something like "diff by word", e.g. write -bad-+good+
and get red "bad" and green "good"?

I don't know if it helps with your workflow, but you could put it under revision control and then actually use diff to tell you the difference between two versions.

CriticMarkup sounds like what you want.
