Right now, I hit Alt+Shift+D, which invokes a short macro calling menu entry view:<? diff -x "CVS" -x ".svn" -I "\$Id.*\$" -I "\$Rev.*\$" -I "\$Date.*\$" -I "\$Author.*\$" -I "\$URL.*\$" -I "^Orbiting .*$" !?$UnixDiff$Options ((-c, -b etc.)):?! --strip-trailing-cr -- "!#!\!.!" "!^!\!.!" and get two files (or directories) on opposite panels diffed into an internal viewer. Because Cygwin diff consume normal Windows paths without an issue. >> At the same time, you could run any given VM and get much better options and >> choices. > Of course.
