Directory Comparison

To quickly see differences between files on the local machine and the server :

• Choose View > Directory Comparison > and either :
  • "compare file size" or
  • "compare modification time."
• Enable the "Hide identical files" option if you don't want to be distracted by files considered the same on both sides.
• Choose " View > Directory Comparison > Enable" (or type CTRL-O).

You will now see color-coded differences between copies of the same file on the different machines, observing the following convention:

• Identical directories and files (same name and same date and time of the last change) in the local computer and in the remote server : They are highlighted in green in the remote server list.
• Directories and files only present in the local computer or in the remote server : They are highlighted in yellow in the list of the location where they reside.
• Directories and files with the same name in the local computer and in the remote server but with different time of the last change :
  • IF 'View => Directory comparison => Compare modification time was selected: They are highlighted in green in the local server list. (Writer's observation: I didn't test the possibility of the file with the last change time to be in the remote server, but I believe that, also in this case, the green highlight shall be in the local computer list, to avoid ambiguity with the first case presented here, of 'identical folders and files'.)
  • IF 'View => Directory comparison => Compare filesize was selected: There isn't any highlight, the directories or files in both the left and right panels remain with a white background.
• Directories and files with the same name in the local computer and in the remote server but with different sizes : ......???........ (Writer's observation: They tend a lot to also have different last change times! I believe they should be displayed in the same form that those with different last change times, but I haven't do this test yet.)
