About this mod
Vortex extensions for file previews using WinMerge (and similar diff tools.)
- Permissions and credits
With this extension installed, when you click "Preview" on a file conflict, it will open the two files in WinMerge to give you a direct comparison between the two.
WinMerge (https://winmerge.org/) has to be installed (duh!).
If WinMerge is installed in a non-default location you have to set the correct path in Settings->Tools.
You can also use other visual diff tools as long as they support the same command line parameters (listing the files to compare as the only parameters), Beyond Compare (https://scootersoftware.com/) works great as well.
Installation
This extension requires Vortex >1.2.13. You can install it by going to Extensions->Find more and there look for "Preview WinMerge"
