Load your own documents
It is possible to load a full directory of revisions through the Load directory
button.
The revisions of the same document have to be placed in the same directory, and have to be at the format: documentname-revisionnumber.txt
In the case of several documents within the same directory, only the first document will be loaded in Diffamation.

- the second slider controls the speed of the animation
