Hi @dtolnay - cool port! I was wondering if you considered requesting to merge this into google/diff-match-patch. That project has been moved to GitHub and incorporates implementations in other languages already too.

I found your repo while trying to understand how best to handle encoding issues with the original library (it has problems handling surrogate pairs / non-word-boundaries) and I thought your implementation would sit well in the official one, might even be fun comparing a compiled version of it in WebAssembly to the JS implementation.

The code is appropriately licensed such that they can take a fork, but it isn't something that I will be able to dedicate time to.
