I love the concept of lexical differential highlighting [0] (discussed here [1]). It makes reading math so much easier, especially in dense code. However I don't know of any editor that implements a feature like this. If you paste the

Apple provides Messages for Business [0], but if you have a machine that can read the iMessages as they come in, you could use the library [1] that powers `imessage-exporter` as a bridge. [0]: https://register.apple.com/mess

The California Poppy release [0] of `imessage-exporter` is the biggest update yet. Most notably, it implements a novel `typedstream` deserializer [1], allowing it to understand the data stored in `NSAttributedString` binary data that is sto
