Re: show absolute path instead of filename

[Kai <kai willadsen gmail com>]

There's plenty of discussion at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/meld/-/issues/84 about the issues around this and some possibilities. The current state of 3.21.x has full path display, but it will not stay as-is because it's extremely ugly. I haven't yet got around to designing/implementing a more presentable option though.

cheers,

Kai

I agree with this. I find it difficult to differentiate the files
(especially when doing a three way compare). Maybe a tool-tip could
display the full file path/name when the mouse hovers over a file name?
