A question: can this plugin invoked automatically? I didn't see an option for this among the command line parameters. For example, I would like to open Notepad++ with split view, automatically compared files, vertical scroll locked together.
Thanks, Dester

I talked to Don about this, and unfortunately, its not possible with the current architecture. However, when you open notepad++ with two files, if you press alt-d, or run a compare from the menu, it will automatically split the panels and synchronize the scroll bars, so its really only one click away from what you want to accomplish :p

Is there a stand-alone version of the compare plug-in (it truly is better than anything else I've found) and I would like to be able to programatically invoke a compare using it? Or; what would it take to make it stand-alone?

Hi all,
Is there a function to compare two text files?
Yes, search the compare plugin in plugin section.

There are simple file comparison programs allowing you to do so, if that is what you are looking for.
I know, I used ExamDiff for this purpose recently, but I prefer the plugin in Notepad++.
