Bugfixes, redesign:
- Preparations for Qt4-Port + some redesign
- GNU-Diff algorithm improved to be independent of line endings (needed for manual diff alignment)
- Avoid restoring a window where it is almost invisible (if moved almost out of the screen area)
- Go to next delta honors special "A vs. B", "A vs. C" or "B vs. C" overview when active. (Patch by Vladan Bato)
- DirectoryMergeWindow: File/Antifile and DirPattern changes will update immediately without rescan.
- Blue toolbar icons (for better visibility of disabled state)
- Bugfix: Crash when merging and selecting "Choose A/B/C for all unsolved conflicts"
  and one of the solved conflicts contained no lines in chosen input.

- Fixed odd ProgressDialog-behaviour when continuing after an error or abort.
- Directory merge: Fixed FollowFileLinks. (Didn't work when copying a file.)
- Initial position now (x=0,y=22). This solves a problem on some Macs.
- Better alignment of B and C in 3-file comparison
- Correctly updating the selection when scrolling via keys and mouse is pressed
- Horizontal scrolling in right-to-left language caused vertical lines - fixed.
