When specified, differences are computed by \code{difflib.Differ},
using the same algorithm as the popular \file{ndiff.py} utility.
This is the only method that marks differences within lines as
well as across lines. For example, if a line of expected output
contains digit \code{1} where actual output contains letter \code{l},
a line is inserted with a caret marking the mismatching column
positions.
