Comments on: East Bound and Down… (some joke about “codin”) http://blog.slickedit.com/2007/10/east-bound-and-down-some-joke-about-codin/ "Hello World" - The SlickEdit Developer Blog Wed, 08 Feb 2012 10:18:34 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Graeme http://blog.slickedit.com/2007/10/east-bound-and-down-some-joke-about-codin/comment-page-1/#comment-204 Graeme Sun, 04 Nov 2007 05:44:02 +0000 http://blog.slickedit.com/?p=114#comment-204 I've used this feature several times, though of course it doesn't rate as high as the code navigation facilities. I often work with code that moves from project to project and sometimes need to compare two slightly different versions of the same function. It's a shame you had to feel disappointed. I guess not every useful feature can make the top ten... Perhaps something for the "did you know" column by Lisa.

Nice diff feature too! I never knew it was there and actually have needed something like this. We would bring a case of Coors (in a can) to our grandma each year as part of our family visit.

It might seem obvious to you, but until you highlighted it, I hadn't noticed it. I'm not a sales/marketing type, so it's difficult for me to say how it could have been made more prominent (that's why I'm not a sales/marketing type), but now that I know it's here, I'll probably use it when it fits.

And you are Coors? Can I be Burt Reynolds? Or does Lee already have that one? J/K :). Nice article Dan. So Symbol Diff is the aluminum can? And you are Coors? Can I be Burt Reynolds?

I had no idea that anyone had implemented such a feature, so I'm happily surprised to find that it is actually sitting in SlickEdit right in front of me. Diff done right. Yes!
