The tab is labeled “OldFile compared with NewFile”.

If you turn on “new file with fully merged contents” then EditPad Pro creates a new tab with the two files merged, based on their differences. You can change these colors by customizing the color palette and editing the “Editor: Compare files: deleted line” and “Editor: Compare files: added line” colors.
It also marks lines in the “new” file in green when they are not present in the “old” file. If you select to highlight changes in the original files, EditPad Pro marks lines present in the “old” or “original” file in red when they are not present in the “new” or “edited” file. Lines with only spaces and tabs are considered to be blank only if you’ve turned on one of the options to ignore differences in spaces and tabs.įinally, “ignore differences in case” tells EditPad Pro to ignore whether a character is uppercase or lowercase, making “A” identical to “a”. Those lines are also not highlighted in the original files. If you turn on “ignore added and removed blank lines”, EditPad Pro does not add blank lines that occur only in one of the two compared files to any new file created by the file comparison. These options are useful when comparing files where differences in whitespace have little or no meaning. If you mark “ignore all differences in spaces and tabs”, then EditPad Pro ignores all spaces and tabs throughout both files when comparing their lines. You can mark both options to ignore both leading and trailing spaces and tabs. That is, spaces and tabs at the end of a line. Similarly, you can choose to ignore trailing spaces and tabs.
That is, when comparing two lines, EditPad Pro ignores any space and tab characters at the start of the lines. You can choose to ignore differences in leading spaces and tabs. It is explained in detail in its own topic. The setting for the minimum match size may have a significant impact on the comparison. You can specify several options when comparing files. The file that you select in the file comparison options screen is considered to be the “new” file. The file that was active at the time you selected Extra|Compare Files in the menu is considered to be the “old” file. The active file is omitted from that list, since you cannot compare a file with itself. In the window that appears, click on the file that contains the newer version of the document, in the list of files that are currently open. Then select Extra|Compare Files from the menu. To compare the files, first activate the file that contains the original or older version of the document by clicking on its tab. The Extra|Compare Files menu item is grayed out until you have two or more files open. After that, you can edit the generated difference file to merge both versions into a single, new file.įirst you need to open the two files you want to compare. If you have two versions of the same text file, you can use Extra|Compare Files to visualize the differences between those files.
