Microsoft XML Diff/Patch -- how to output differences

Thanks to this newsgroup I've been pointed to Microsoft's XML Diff & Patch
utilities. I've been reading about how I can use the tools to generate a
diffgram between two XML documents, and how the XML Patch utility can (for
example) bring document A in line with document B. Very cool.
However, I was wondering if there's any way I can use the diffgram to
generate something else; a third type of document that highlights the
differences between the the input docs and is a little more readable than a
diffgram would be ideal. Where I can see actual node names instead of node
match numbers, for instance.
Even if I could get a document that shows what XML Patch would do; the new
nodes added, or nodes deleted, or values changed, I'd be happy. The XML
patch demo site at http://apps.gotdotnet.com/xmltools/xmldiff/default.aspx
has a nice colored comparison between the two files, and would be terrific
for my purposes, but I can't find any source code on how they did it.
Has anyone done something like this before? I'm open to suggestions.
Thanks!
