[Tkdiff-discuss] TkDiff 4.0b2 at sourceforge.net

[Dorothy R. <mo...@ar...>]

Hi all,

TkDiff 4.0b2 has been released at the SourceForge site 
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/tkdiff/>.  It has the Windows path 
problems fixed - all of them I could find, anyway.  The browse dialog 
and the tempfile issues are resolved to the best of my somewhat limited 
ability to test. (silly XP machine, very unix-y usage model on the part 
of the owner, which is why I miss things.)

This is _not_ the same as the starkit version Larry mentioned.  I 
downloaded it to see, and what I got seems to be 3.09 with a couple of 
one-line  changes.

Some time ago, someone asked about the 3-way merge functionality, 
thinking it had disappeared.  I examined 3.09 and 4.0x, and the 3-way 
merge code is still there and appears to do the same thing.  It doesn't 
display the parent file, but only takes it into account when deciding 
which of the two files being merged is chosen by default.
If anyone knows of a version that does more, or can tell me if I'm 
missing something, let me know.  There are 10,000 lines of code in one 
file, which can make a person kinda crazy ;-)
