Hi,
It is really nice software and I like it. Though I would make some suggestions like:

Having a refresh button on tool bar
Having history of recently opened files
Having two tiles/folders in new session by clicking on one of them

Anyway, this is still the best compare utility for Linux I found.

Thanks and regards,

-Petar

Hi Nigel, <Ctrl+D> and <Ctrl+E> go to next/prev difference.

Does winmerge do 3 way diffs? It's not clear to me how the shortcuts
should work in a 3 way diff.
