the diff presented visually if possible (very much like Cervisia
presents diffs between CVS revisions).

Is there any tool available in Fedora that can do this? (OK, I could use
the same filename for both, commit them as two different revisions in a
CVS rep, and then do a diff in Cervisia, but that's a bit cumbersome :))

try vimdiff file1 file2

or gvimdiff

Chances are they are already installed on your system

in my system at least, if I name the file something.diff and open in vi (vim) it automatically comes with some syntax highlighting.
