Description jerome 2005-11-28 12:19:31 UTC

Version:           3.4 (using KDE 3.5.0, compiled sources)
Compiler:          Target: i586-suse-linux
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.13-SL100_BRANCH_20051109154739-smp

1- Not a bug but a readability suggestion : fullpath and not only name file on the
top of each window source code. (I know if one make a full analysis of the window design he should understand that Source is on the left and ...
But if he doesn not remenmber what he did or only not very sure...

2- Certainly a bug. 

When using the 'directory window' to choose the files to compare one has to be very cautious as strange select can happen after his choice.
Never begin by giving the second [destination] file!!! it can change the adress of the pre-printed source file

Sorry not to be very clear, but difficult to explain; Doing it you will see some strange behaviour or I hope so.
Thanks

Jerome, Phnom Penh

1. The full path is shown in the window title bar. On top of the source / destination view, there is usually not enough space to display full path.

2. The directory window will be changed when porting to KDE4.

Please submit bugs and improvement suggestions in different bug reports.
