• Use file on disk - Select this option to diff the file on disk and not the file in the buffer.
• More - Click this button to display additional file options.
• Symbols - Click this button to select a symbol to diff. The selected symbol will appear next to the word
"Symbol" under the Line range options. All symbols from Path 1 are diffed against all symbols from
Path 2. Performing a multi-file diff always diffs all symbols. When symbols are diffed, there is a multi-file
diff on just two files which immediately diffs all symbols. Not all symbol blocks are identified correctly.
For an example, see Comparing Symbols or Parts of Files.
• Line range - Specifies the start and end line numbers for the range of lines to compare. If you set the
start line number and leave the end line number blank, the range extends to the end of the file. When
you select a range of lines, you can compare parts of the same file.
• Record file width - Specifies the record width to use when reading a file (optional).
• Filespecs - Enter a space-delimited list of wildcard file specifications to difference. For example, enter
"*.c *.cpp *.h" to difference all files with .c, .cpp, and .h extensions.
• Exclude filespecs - Enter a space-delimited list of wildcard file specifications to be excluded from the
differencing. For example, enter junk* test* to exclude all files with names beginning with the words
"junk" or "test".
