Hi,
I wanted to bring my feature request long time ago up again :-)
Now with some additional info and sample of two files to compare attached.
As I wrote, we use wincompare/compareit from Grigsoft:
http://www.grigsoft.com/wincmp3.htm
This prog exactly does what we want, see my older description and attached samples.
The prog is shareware, you can try the features, it only runs on windows.
But we also need a powerful compare prog on Linux and like meld very much.
Meanwhile compareit also is developed very slowly :-(
CompareIt uses the keys Ctrl+Alt Left/Right to copy only the current line and like meld
Alt Left/Right to copy the whole block, this logically fits good.
See attached sample-files to compare ...
Regards,
Claudio

Hi, here is my feature request push/pull current line. On Windows I use a compare program, that is able to copy only the current line to left/right. Sometimes in a comparison I dont want to push/pull a whole block of of different lines, but only one line of the different block. The windows compare program uses the keys Ctrl+Alt Left/Right to copy only the current line. Would be nice to have this feature also in meld.
This feature request has come up several times (see for example https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=727600) and shortcuts/UI aside, it sounds like a nice idea. However, each time it comes up the question is always: how do you figure out where to insert the line in the other file? For insert chunks this is fine, but what about modified or conflicted chunks? cheers, Kai
