Comparing files is now easy

Compare Suite is a kind of software which makes life easier and saves lot of time for other productive use. How? Have you ever saved several copies of a file and worked on them and then you can’t decide which file is modified in which way. Comparing files also becomes impossible if numbers of files are large for example for a web designer, the numbers of files can be quite more. A typical site may have 200 files and checking these files manually for changes can not only be a tedious job but also time consuming. The Compare Suite file compare utility does the job of comparing any number of files so easy and beautifully that you will simply love this software.
This file compare utility compares files by many ways. You can simply compare text in case of word files, Excel spreadsheets, PDF or html files and the software highlights the changed and matching text so that you can differentiate easily, it also gives detailed information on number of lines modified, when they were modified and percentage of similarity between two files. It highlights the changed, added and deleted text in three different colors which is yet another powerful feature of this software. Blue denotes added line/text, red for deleted line/text and green tells about modified line/text. The text file compare function is further enhanced buy the ability to compare one format of file with another like word file can be compared with PDF and other combinations as well.
While comparing two files you may want to edit files like copy pasting text from one another and this can be done very easily with few clicks and you are done. Not only files but you can compare folders as well. This is very important as comparing folders with large number of files manually one by one is almost impossible. The software created a detailed report when two folders are compared and now it becomes quite easy to make out the difference between the files of both folders. With a function called FolderPrint, you can print the content of the folders for a manual look and this is again easy as once the content of folder gets printed on pages, what you all need is a pen and some eagle eyed people. With this feature you can also browse files in a better way than you would do on a regular file explorer. With so many features, this software is a must try and you can download a 30 day trial and try it without any risk.

There is something free but probably not as powerful (I think it can only handle ASCII encoded files) called windiff for windows.
For unix, well it’s practically built in…
And for Mac, you’d probably have to go to your nearest Apple(C) Store and purchase the “iSpot The Difference” software package for £99.
