Windows CRLF on one side and Unix/Linux LF on the other side results in a size difference despite other text content being the same. When you double click on files, the text contents are compared and found equal. When you close the Text Compare, the Folder Compare is updated with the result of that comparison.


The Folder Compare does not use this information by default, however,and will compare using the attributes timestamp/size for a quickcomparison. You can make this initial scan more detailed in the FolderCompare Session Settings, and enable a Rules-based compare (same asdouble clicking) or a Binary or CRC compare.

I'm trying to get this done without incorporating BC's shell into DOpus. I've looked through BC's command line switches but there doesn't seem to be one that forces the selected file to be shown in the right or left pane. There also doesn't seem to be a way to load a single file into BC, navigate to another directory to select a second file, and then execute a "compare to..." command (referring to the previously loaded file in BC).


If a file is selected this code compares a file with the same name in left and right listers. Is it possible to have a button that compares the folder path if nothing is selected, or the first item in each lister if a file is selected?






Beyond Compare by Scooter Software is a pay-to-use program that compares file codes side-by-side. It can also look at directories and other types of data. It is designed for programmers who need to examine coding quickly for discrepancies.


Unlike its competitor Meld, Better Compare (BC) has the power to examine and compare files and directories, including examining MP3 files and images. When you are comparing the code, the app will highlight differences in red.


Winmerge cannot merge three files as Beyond Compare can. However, Meld has the advantage because you can compare three items at the same time. This feature is not available in BC. Even so, any troubleshooting in the Better Compare app is straightforward.


- Comparing build outputs/installation directories: Eli asked me about a month ago to look into a hunch he had that we had stopped building some important utilities for Escalation. Turned out his hunch was correct, after we compared the build output from the two releases and filtered by *.exe


- Version comparison: It looks like there is an option to compare versions of files. We could use this feature to check if all the versions in our files are consistent and find out which ones are un-versioned


Several of our mutual customers have reported Malwarebytes Premium detecting Beyond Compare 4.2's executable "c:\program files\beyond compare 4\bcompare.exe" as Malware.Ransom.Agent.Generic. I tested a trial version of Malwarebytes on a Windows 10 virtual machine but I've been unable to duplicate the false positive.


I had a problem with comparing two user folders. These folders needed to have identical ACLs except for the user who owned the folder.

I solved this by replace the username in the ACL with a common name customer. This allowed me to compare the ACL without having an obvious difference on the username itself.


The first thing I tried to do with Beyond Compare was compare two versions of a scholarly text. It tracked down the differences, but the interface made it difficult for me to find them: Beyond Compare does not support word wrapping. This means each lengthy paragraph in my article got just a single line, and I had to keep scrolling horizontally to see the rest of the line. Not very convenient.


Other than importing the backup as a PST and checking the 'don't create dupes', is there a way to compare the folders to see how many items were deleted or just visually compare the contents of all / part of a PST / exchange mailbox ?


The Quad HD screen obviously requires some new smarts to display application windows properly because not all applications handle it well. "Beyond Compare" is a severe case in point - it seems that icons in it's windows are displayed very small and text box lines are truncated vertically, so much so that the bottom half (or more) of the text in these lines cannot be read. I'm guessing this is a Dell driver issue because of the newness of these screens. I'm a software developer and use Beyond Compare all the time. In some cases I can't even change the settings because the setting screen in unreadable with this issue.


I develop in a dual-screen mode with a Dell U2412M monitor and the "bad" windows on the laptop screen do not change their perspective when I move them across - although during the drag they show as very large windows on the second screen until the whole window is in the second screen and then it shrinks to an "expected" size. It is this behaviour in particular that leads to think it is a driver "bug" that might be causing the window display problem.
