Hi,

Originally I had this feature request:

I like Meld, but one feature I miss (it's available in WinMerge but I use
linux), is the possibility to have the left and/or right document being a
blank sheet. On this blank sheet, I want to paste whatever text I have in
the clipboard.

The workaround now, is creating temp files and open those in Meld. These
extra steps are annoying.

But I just tried v1.8.1 and accidentilly found out one can start a 'File
comparison' and immediately can click 'Blank Comparison' or 'Compare'. This
GUI can be improved;

- when choosing file comparison, have file selectors for both the left and
right pane (or middle in a 3-way comparison). Now there is just one file
selector
- add, besides 'File comparison', 'Directory comparison' and 'Version
control view', a new option 'Blank comparison' (promote this button to big
button and always active).

I hope someone adds this feature.

Regards,

Mondane
