Terry J. Reedy <tjreedy at udel.edu> added the comment:

The quote is in the following section.
https://docs.python.org/3/library/difflib.html#difflib.Differ
I do not really understand the previous line "Lines beginning with ‘?’ attempt to guide the eye to intraline differences, and were not present in either input sequence. "  Can you give examples where '?' occurs, with tabs and spaces (newlines would not be within a line).?
