Hi All,

I've figured out how to diff successfully using P4Merge: Select File > 
Comparison Method > Ignore Line Ending and All White Space Differences

I couldn't figure it out in Meld but hopefully what I've posted will help 
someone.

One the same topic, but slightly different question: How can I copy test 
elements from one test plan to another? If I open two test plans in their own 
instance of JMeter it is not possible to drag / copy / CTRL-C from one to 
another. Also, I've tried copying elements to the Workbench, then opened a 
new test plan, but the Workbench is cleared when a test plan is closed.

Maybe it would be a good feature to have the workbench store test elements 
regardless of whether there's a test plan currently loaded or not (But it 
would still be in-memory). this would enable users to copy elements to-from 
testplans.

Regards,
Noel
