This is bug 387441: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=387441 That screenshot is a good example of the kind of UI we'd be looking at, so I'd appreciate it if you could add it to the bug. This request has been around for a long time now. I actually really like the idea of offering hexdump-based diff, but it would be a *lot* of work to do properly. If anyone is interested in taking a stab at it, I'll happily discuss what it should look like and how it would work. I'm exceedingly unlikely to get a chance to try any time soon though. cheers, Kai _______________________________________________ meld-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/meld-list
