1. download TextWrangler
2. create the following shell file
#!/bin/sh
twdiff  -diff "$1" "$2"

where twdiff is commandline tool that TextWrangler will install

3. set xcode preferences to that shell (make sure that permissions of that shell has executable flag)


or download free version of the CodeWarrior 10 version and create the following script

#!/bin/sh
cmdide -diff "$1" "$2"

(put cmdide utility in your path)

I've only used FileMerge a few times (the source code merging tool that comes with xcode), but I'm already looking for something a bit smarter to replace it. I'm of the opinion that a file merging tool should make the task easier than doing it completely by hand.

I'm very keen on a Windows utility called Beyond Compare. Does anyone know of something similar for OS X? I notice that xcode can be configured to use BBEdit instead of FileMerge, but at 199USD it is out of my price range - something under 60USD would be more appropriate.

thanks,

Andy
