[Winmerge-support] Required to press esc 2 times to exit?

[Robert D. <rcd...@gm...>]

Hi,

Through subversion I use WinMerge to view differences between 2 text files.
If I modify one of the text files, press ESC, a save dialog comes up and I
press ENTER to save changes, I have to press ESC yet AGAIN to make the main
window close even though it has no open documents. Why do I have to press
ESC the second time? I wasn't able to find an option to disable this.

Thanks.

can you check that your Subversion client gives WinMerge -e commandline 
parameter. Sounds like it is missing, and WinMerge only (correctly) 
closes current active window.

Yes, it is specifying the -e option. I'll have to read the documentation as
to what this command does. Thank you for your response.
