If you prefer a bash script, try this command line. Say you are in
Documentation/it/notation and newly corrected files are
Documentation/it/notation/new/file1.itexi, file2.itexi and so on.
rm alldiffs # remove it first if it exists
for f in file1 file2 file3 ; do diff -u $f.itexi new/$f.itexi >>
alldiffs ; done
then
less alldiffs
