ExamDiff(TM) Version 1.1
ExamDiff Copyright 1997 PureStyle(TM) ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

ExamDiff is a freeware Windows 95 and Windows NT tool for 
visual file comparison. It has a number of simple and 
convenient features that many developers have been asking for 
a long time from a file comparison tool.

- Remembers up to ten last used first and second files. This 
 allows the user to quickly select the two files the user 
 wishes to compare. Also, the "BROWSE" feature always starts 
 in the same directory as a chosen file. Thus, if two files 
 in two respective directories have already been compared, 
 then one does not need to navigate through the directory 
 tree to view files from the same respective directories.

- One push re-compare function which attempts to leave the 
 viewer's focus in the same place as before the re-compare.

- Easy editing of the first and second files. ExamDiff will 
 spawn any editor (configurable by the user) with the first 
 and/or second file.

- Saves the standard UNIX DIFF file. (A file containing the 
 standardized file difference information.)

- Easy navigation through the differences via "Next 
 Difference"/"Previous Difference" buttons and hot keys or 
 via a list box of all the differences.

- Allows the copying of text from the comparison panes via 
 a hot key or a right button pop up.

- Simple "Search" option to search for strings in the 
 comparison panes. It also remembers up to 10 most recent
  searches. 

- Customizable colors and tab size, as well as options for 
 "Ignore blanks in lines" and "Ignore case" for comparison.

- Fully customizable file extension filter. For example, the 
 user can choose only .c and .cpp files or any other files 
 he/she chooses to be displayed.

- Tooltips that include file properties, difference number, 
 and etc.

- Adjustable pane splitter with smooth synchronized scrolling.
