The documenation string for compare-windows tells me: If `compare-windows-sync' is non-nil, then successive calls of this command work in interlaced mode
Also, the documentation string for compare-windows-sync tells me: If the value of this variable is `nil', then function `ding' is called to beep or flash the screen when points are mismatched. Yet when I go to customise compare-windows-sync, I don't see any option to set it to nil; all I seem to be able to chose is to set it to a function or a regexp. I tried setting it to function nil, but was told: custom-variable-save: Saving compare-windows-sync: Invalid function: nil I also tried setting it to regexp nil, but then I see: compare-windows-sync is a variable defined in `compare-w.el'. Its value is "nil" ie. it's set to the string "nil", not to nil itself. So how can I get back the old behaviour of compare windows, where it stops at differences, rather than skipping over them in some semi-clever way?
