FileMerge - A file comparison tool from Apple
Authored by: kyngchaos on Feb 17, '03 11:50:36AM

Funny, that - I just played with BBEdit's differences tool this weekend after updating to MOSX 10.2.4 (I had to restore my changes to the Apache config). I knew it was there and had used it before, but to manually apply or just to check changes. Pretty much the same - it snaps the windows side by side and has buttons to apply changes to the old or new files. Don't know if Apple's tool can compare whole folders tho. Of course, BBEdit isn't free, but if you already have it and do all your text editing with it, that's one less tool to worry about.

Wow, I had no idea that BBEdit had a file comparison tool. So I checked it out, and it sucks. FileMerge.app is a much better tool, the graphic indication of changes makes everything work so easily.
