What's new

v2.1
This update includes a major enhancement:
- You can now select to ignore text formatting during comparisons! This means line wraps, indentation, line lengths and programmer coding preferences such as where they put the opening braces after an if statement are not detected as differences in text to text comparison.
Makes the following change:
- The refresh buttons rerun comparison from current text vs rereading the files.
And corrects the following problems:
- A bug sometimes causing text from last manual alignment until end of the file to be missing.
- Orange text has been improved for both light and dark mode display.


v1.4 [Feb 1, 2012]
Version 1.4 improvements:
- Improved support for Date/Time column.
- Fix issue with confirmation dialogs not displaying on some platforms.
Version 1.3 improvements:
- Better memory support for OS X Lion.
- Locale support for Date/Time column.
- Fix crash that could occur on double click of non-existing files.
Version 1.2 improvements:
- Silent operation in command-line mode; useful when using as a diff tool with GIT or other command-line based version control systems.
- Various usability enhancements including tool tips, improved display of possible actions, and exit-time automatic scroll to file or directory panel as appropriate when a confirmation dialog is necessary.
- Threaded file copy now gives smoother copying of large files. Also you can now cancel file copy operations. (Note: Since FileManager is used, cancel will occur once current file is copied and before the next file copy is started)
Version 1.1 improvements:
- Important usability fix: A bug where long lines were truncated has been fixed.
- Application no longer attempts to open binary files as fixed-width Unicode. (causes slow downs or crashes) ASCII and UTF-8 are supported with limit of 100MB.
- Improvements to the file vs file sidebar.
