You can't ignore lines at will from the diff view, but you can specify line filter patterns (about 8 I think) which will be highlighted Differently in the diff view. The "next/prev diff" command will skip over them as well. These can be configured on the Tools/Filters menu on the Line filters tab. -- Dean Earley, Dee (de...@ea...) irc: irc://irc.blitzed.org/ web: http://personal.earlsoft.co.uk phone: +44 (0)780 8369596 |
