Re: DiffMerge behaves strangely with links to folders (Windows)

Had a quick look at wxWidgets. wxFileName::Normalize follows links on windows if flags contains wxPATH_NORM_SHORTCUT (by calling wxFileName::GetShortcutTarget ) Possible candidates: wxPATH_NORM_ALL is the default argument for wxFileName::Normalize , and contains all wxPathNormalize bits but wxPATH_N...

Re: DiffMerge behaves strangely with links to folders (Windows)

Well, it doesn't seem all that weird to me :) Since DiffMerge is cross-platform, I guess you're using some kind of portable framework (or just a bunch of portable libraries). If DiffMerge uses file system functions from such a framework, which follow links for whatever reason, it would explain what'...

DiffMerge behaves strangely with links to folders (Windows)

I have noticed that, when doing a folder-diff, DiffMerge does some strange things when you have links to folders in one or both of the compared folders.

Suggestion/Request: vertical bars in intra-line mode

E.g. when you change long a[100 ] to long a[100] you won't see anything in the pane that shows the new version. (Except of course that the background-color of the whole line communica...

Big thanks & some suggestions

First of all I'd like to say thanks for this great tool, or rather: for making it available for free! As others have written it might not be the best tool available, but it's the best *free* tool for diffing that I could find. The suggestions: 1) Don't clear the clipboard when exiting. (There's anot...

I just want to second that request. I often run into this, since I never remember to keep DiffMerge open before pasting what I needed. When checking in I often need some strings from the Files I've changed for the check in comment, and just diffing the Files is the fastest Way to get to the appropri...
