#1 Feature request: call program with filenames of 2 tabs

Posted by: syntech | Date: 2015-12-02 15:59 | IP: IP Logged

I use the kontext function "Text-Diff: This file with active file" (or so, I'm using the german version) very often. But I would love to see the possibility not to use the internal diff function but instead use a custom diff program and call it with the 2 filenames I want to compare.

Do you see a possibility to add this feature?

Or, if this is not possible, to add a merge function to the internal diff function? So that I can (block/line) merge from/to left/right with a simple mouse click.

New PSPad version allows you define external text diff tool. PSPad behavior stay same - if external tool is defined, PSPad will use it.
See Program settings / Text Diff

Thanks for the info. I updated the program and found the option. Works fine so far.
