The
Tools, Difference menu and the
File, Difference menu are both launch the
Difference dialog and that dialog is just a wrapper to the
xDiff.exe tool found in the Zeus bin folder.
The
xDiff.exe tool is pretty much a standard fiff tool.
In the
Options, Editor Options menu,
Miscellaneous panel there is a command line option for an external difference tool.
Here are some examples of such a command line:
Code: Select all
"c:\Program Files\WinMerge\WinMergeU.exe" $f1 $f2
"c:\Program Files\DiffMerge\DiffMerge.exe" $f1 $f2
"c:\Program Files\Perforce\P4WinMrg.exe" $f1 $f2 $f1
To access that command line either make it the default action using the
Miscellaneous panel, or use the
View External button found in the
Difference dialog.
