Background
Did you ever copy many files to a networked or portable harddisk and use another system to update or delete files ? And find yourself later in trouble to find the few files you changed among many uncgange files ?
CompareDir does just that: compare 2 directories + subdirectories and you decide what files you want to keep, copy or delete.
Note this is NOT an editor, it is only a organiser.
