This is helpful if you have made any mods to WEE which you may want to keep.

...

If you are running Linux, and you have chosen to back up files you can view the differences between the old file and the new file by using diff and then copy your changes back into the newly updated file, if you wish:

diff -y --suppress-common-lines ~/wee/parser-bak.e ~/wee/parser.e 

For what it is worth in edx.ex the Windows compare command is something like:

 fc /T  parser-bak.e parser.e 

I think a "Mods" option in WEE kinda like the old edx.ex routine which would compare the current file to the file saved on disk would be pretty nice. I haven't been able to implement it WEE so far.

Thanks again to Pete Eberlein and Irv Mullins for WEE and EuGTK!

kdiff, cross platform visual diff is quite good for merging changed files (diff backend). though, it can get confused with large changes.
