Alas, CodeWarrior now refuses to open on my Intel Mac. I knew

to merge parallel directories on isolated CVS systems.
Apple's FileMerge is functional but so very unintuitive (no live
update, no in-place update, arrows point in the wrong direction,
weird preferences to deal with). Are there any merge tools out
there as good as CW?
Emacs' emerge and ediff tools are extremely good, and have the
benefit of actually being part of the text editor rather than a
separate tool (so all the normal editing commands are available...
the files you're merging are in normal buffers---albeit with extra
highlighting).
Of course, Emacs is about as far from a conventional Mac
application as it's possible to get, so if you've come from the pre-
OS X Mac world you might not like it, but if you're familiar with
it already then it's a pretty good choice.
Aquamacs emacs is a pretty good compromise. It can be run as a
familiar Mac app, but its has most (if not all) of emacs goodness
hiding just below the surface.
