Crash when comparing folder with • in name

Post by qidane » Fri Jul 27, 2007 10:24 am

Hello,

When I try to compare folders that include the • (option-8 on mac keyboard) character in the path DiffMerge crashes.

The reason this is a problem is this character is used by my backup software Dantz/EMC Retrospect to mark a private folder you do now wish copied to the server.

Removing all the • characters each time I need to do a compare would be impractical.

Is this the right place to report this - any suggestions of a fix.

Thanks,

Andrew
