Cool. Now with Mac this makes four different platforms. Can anybody top that?

Somebody with a Mac has to answer this.

Yes, of course. I would add the instructions to the README.

Please change line 289-290 in kdiff3.cpp (KDiff3-0.9.88) like this:
   if (statusBar() !=0 )
       statusBar()->setSizeGripEnabled(true);

If you've linked KDiff3 with Qt-libs statically, could you please send me the 
binary. I would upload it for other Mac users.

Cheers,
