Rule-Based Comparison - Differentiation btw Important and Unimportant Differences
Posted: Mon May 04, 2020 6:34 am
Dear all
I am new to ExamDiff Pro and evaluate the differences to Beyond Compare.
I wonder if it is possible to compare a directory based on rules. I couldn't find it in help-manual and web search, therefore I raise this request for support in this forum.
What I would like to learn:
Is it possible to define rule with e.g. "unimportant differences" and conduct a rule based comparison, that has one of the following outputs:
> Binary same: The files are exactly the same.
> Rules-based same: The files have binary differences, such as character encoding, that can be ignored.
> Unimportant differences: A rules-based comparison found only unimportant differences.
> Important differences: A rules-based comparison found important differences.

Output should preferably indicated with e.g. different colour.
Thank to community in advance.
Best Regards,
Jens
