[TxMt] PracTex journal tips, revision control and academic workflow

[Christoph Held]

Thanks for the recommendation, changes.app does look nice. I will definitely
check it out once I have upgraded to Leopard.
FileMerge on the other hand does not play nice with accented characters,
Umlauts etc.
If that can be cured I'd be interested to hear about it.

Thanks for all the answers, I was without internet for a couple of days (and
actually enjoyed it).
