There's the command-line diff3 program, but it does not handle directories, so you'd have to script that. There's kdiff3 (GUI file differencer) that also can do both two- and three-file and -directory diffs. I use kdiff3 a lot, but only in its two-file mode. I checked the "handbook" (their terminology—it uses the usual on-line KDE Help Center document reader) and it mentions the three-file and two- and three-directory options. > Thanks in advance, > IG Randall Schuzl -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
