Thank you for your work.

Somebody have more words for review than me. But I can say one word - Awesome!

This tool does not work with the History tab with eclipse. Unfortunately not worth downloading and installing without this basic feature.

The plug-in is useful, something that I would have expected as a built-in feature. Although it does not affect the comparison in Team Synchronizing perspective - for comparing different versions of the same file.

This project is very helpful especially I like the winmerge as diff tool for eclipse for local files. There was a bug for opening files residing in diffrent workspace which I have fixed according to adrianissott's solution. The download is available at google project com.leucht.eclipse.externaldiff_1.0.0.zip follow the forum thread for patch

Really wish this worked when comparing to remote files (i.e. CVS repository). Still a handy tool that I use on occasion. I like that it becomes a new option and does not automatically replace the existing Eclipse diff.
