QuickSpot File Compare

- Version 4.2

QuickSpot is a visual file compare utility and folder
compare utility. It compares 2 text-files or folders
and highlights the differences found between them.
File-differences can be reported in detail, down to
each individual byte or character. Lines that are not
in synch will be highlighted for quick identification.
Differences can be edited, viewed, printed or saved as
a file.

In QuickSpot, you can set unique comparison-criteria
that find the needle in the haystack! You can compare
specific lines or all lines, narrow down the comparison
across specific positions per line, and filter out
source-code comments. You can also skip a number of
lines repeatedly, or compare different ranges in the files.

File- and folder-editing features allow a quick fix of
the discrepancies found by QuickSpot. A scrolling
line-container lets you compare any 2 lines and shows
all differences between them, character by character.
You can deal with any discrepancy found right on the
spot. In addition, there is a find/replace option and
support for copying/merging text between the 2 files;
files can also be saved and printed. In the
folder-section, individual files can be viewed/opened,
deleted, renamed, moved or copied.

Various options are available how to display the loaded
files or folders and the discrepancies between them.
All settings can be changed at any time and can be
saved permanently.

QuickSpot can be run in a batch process, comparing 2
files or folders that are supplied on the command-line
as arguments, and writing the results into a file,
which is also supplied as a further command-line
argument. This works both from a command-window (the
DOS-prompt) and from the Windows Run menu.
