1) FileMerge asks you for a merge folder when you want to save
changes. Now, I'm not sure I've ever in my life wanted to save a
merge into a third location - I always want to merge changes from
one file into another. There should be an option to merge into
the right hand folder, and the folder selection dialog should
come up pointing to that folder by default. I have many times
accidentally saved merges into the wrong folder, sometime
destroying perfectly good files.
I don't have much of an answer for your first complaint. However
you should know that there indeed are keyboard shortcuts. Try
using the down & up arrows to move between differences, and the
left and right arrow to 'choose' which version you want.
That's useful to know. I hadn't worked that one out!
One other thing I recently stumbled across (which you may already
know about) was that the 'Compare Files..." dialog is expandable.
And you can drag files/folders between the different image wells. I
just drag my right file icon down to the Merge well & that avoids the
whole save dialog.
