Hello, yes I can still reproduce in 4.1.22082

Comparing two simple text files in user home directory, UI shows differences,
choosing "File -> save comparison" (roughly translated from Italian) if I fill
"run comparison in" field (with the same user home directory or another parent
dir), the produced output file is empty. The output is fine if I leave that
field empty.

Yes, I'm using the F27 RPMs (and Rawhide RPMs on the Virtual machine).

Running the command from console correctly produces the diff file.

What happens when you run the same command:
diff -U 3 -dHrN -- one.txt two.txt >conf.diff
in a Konsole?

This is weird. I even get the exact same diff options, yet, for me, it runs
diff just fine. I'm running Fedora 27, with the Kompare from the Fedora RPM
package (which you are also using, aren't you?).

Created attachment 110370
  --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=110370=edit
screenshot of diff settings

I made the exact same steps (see screenshot), but when I save the diff file I
get a 0 byte file:

$ ls -l conf.diff 
-rw---. 1 marvin marvin 0  6 feb 17.28 conf.diff

I get the same result in a freshly installed Fedora Rawhide virtual machine. I
already tried to load default kompare settings, but nothing change.

I cannot reproduce this. I tried comparing 2 files, then using "Save diff...".
It made me select the diff settings. I clicked "Save", picked a file name, then
clicked "Save" again. I got a valid diff file.

So I will need more precise reproducing instructions.
