Has anyone worked out (or even on) a script to compare the source text for two AppleScripts?
Hi Gil,
I've used Xcode's "FileMerge" app for years and love it. Here's a sample comparison of two simple scripts.
The visual display of differences is quite useful and very thorough. You'll note that the right script is missing a line and that its last line has a changed variable name, from x to y, as compared to the left script.
Note that this comparison only works if both scripts are saved as text files (with the .applescript extension). It also helps if they use the same line ending character, otherwise that will get flagged as a difference in every line. Regards, Stan C.
