Yeah I'd love to be able to do something like this, but we can't. GTK's file chooser doesn't have a 'file or directory' mode; it's either one or the other. > 2).

The new comparison dialog is gone, and opens a new tab that may address some of your suggestions. There's no labels (the old labels directly related to Meld's use as a VC merge tool) and instead correspond directly to placement in the resulting comparison. cheers, Kai _______________________________________________ meld-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/meld-list
