Working on a script with multiple people/versions? BeyondCompare!

[Coragin]

Here is a great little program, it allows you to load up two files and it will compare them side by side, line by line and will highlight the differences.  It will also show (and leave spaces in one) where new code is, what is changed just a little and allow you to copy the new code over to either side with one click.

I encourage anyone working with multiple people on the same script to download and try this out.

Don't forget that ScriptUO with TortoiseSVN does this as well.

As does Notepad++

I'll add in my vote for Notepad++ since I love it so much!

I like ExamDif

Especially since that Beyond Compare is 30 Day.

Maybe we can get TM to add supoort to SUO for the drag and rop and "go to line and compare" functions in ExamDif... that's SWEET.

-Easy editing of the first and second files. ExamDiff will
 spawn any editor (configurable by the user) with the first
 or second file, and line number option (available for
 editors that support this, through ExamDiff variables:
 $FILE (first or second file name), $CURDIFF (number of
 line at which the current difference starts), and
 $CARET (number of line where the caret is located)).

I use notepad++ at work whenever I need to do that but have been meaning to play around with SUO and tortoise.

Yea but he's looking into it right now anyways, wouldn't be hard to add in a check for $file and $chkdef or whatever...?   Or SHOULDN'T be I would think...  I'm sure supporting one standard is better, but why wouldn't a check for the variables from both be possible?

[TrailMyx]

Sounds like more work.  TortoiseSVN works for me; I use it for version control of everything I do and it integrates seamlessly into SharpDevelop.  I'm not gonna make any changes in that regard.

Is there any documentation on how TSVN works with SUO?

Oh yeh, it's with all the other documentation.

It was all on a cocktail napkin from a cheezy, Glitter Gulch, penny-slot dive but someone spilled their Metropolitan on the bar and the ink ran. It's gone now.
