I think this might be possible if Allan added a feature to txmt:// 
that allowed one to not only jump to a line and character, but also 
to select a range.  And better yet, allow a URL to call a command. 
But this is probably a few versions down the road.

By the way, I do think BBEdit's diff is pretty good (I bought it a 
few versions back), possibly their best feature. I think that and 
Palettes are the main features distinguishing it from TM at the 
moment.
