Another workaround is to install AnyEdit Tools: http://andrei.gmxhome.de/anyedit/index.html The functionality is there, but very hard to find from the UI. Select an arbitrary file in the project explorer, then use Ctrl-3 and type "Compare with Other Resource". This will open a dialog to select resources to compare and you can actually select external files and folders there. |
