Iggy Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 Since you're looking for something that works on OSX and not windoze give BBEdit a shot. http://www.barebones.com/products/bbedit/index.shtml Iggy Everything's funny but nothing's a joke...

Guest Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 I was going to recommend BBedit, but was beat to the punch. Their free version, TextWrangler, will do diffs as well. This is a nice, free app. You should get this for sure. Make sure you use the "multi file search" under find. For example, if you want to find all instances of "ACCOUNT_GENDER" in the catalog, you would add the catalog folder to the "multi file search" box, then search for ACCOUNT_GENDER. It will searh all the files in /catalog/ and give you a nice list of the results and show you where in each file the results are located. Invaluable for finding stuff in osC and finding where you made changes. Also, you should have xCode as an optional install and it should do diffs as well and much, much more... definitely overkill. Finally, you can fire up the terminal and do a good old fashioned "diff" on two files. Type "man diff" for how to use it.
