          how how thats a hussle, maby cuz I dont know how to fully utilizate it , I rather go for something that know to compare the files with the same name for instance , so that I dont have to sort them then press manualy press compare…

            why not using versioning systems like git in such a case?

            Cheers

              Hello,

              For the record: Compare Plugin v2 (by Pavel Nedev) is much better and easier to use.

              Claudia,
              Greetings. :)

                Shalom Yaron,

                That’s for sure, no doubt.
                But comparing >4000 xml files might be quite a challenge ;-)

                Cheers
                Claudia

                    First of all , thank you for your time.
                    Second, damn son, I bet some of my neurons died while typing the replay.
                    Regarding the Compare Plugin , it was because of it Ive started using NP++ , its free , its fast , it helped me learn codeing from examples , so Ive used it at home an work.
                    But right now Im looking for something that could easly compare my 4700 old files with the new ones , the ability to compare the files from 2 folders(or with the same name) and easy acces to specific files. I wander if this could be added on a future version of Compare.
                    That aside, after a day of search Ive got a trial version of Beyound Compare, its doing the job but I still need to get used to the interface…

                      another free app is diffmerge,
                      maybe useful to you.

                      Cheers
