Re: Meld 1.8.1 released

[Keegan Witt <keeganwitt gmail com>]

Sorry for the delay.  Someone reported that GTK wouldn't load for him and I was hoping to track that down why before updating the binaries.  I haven't figured it out (it doesn't help that I've not been able to recreate the issue), but I've decided to go ahead and release new ones in the mean time.  Has anyone else experienced this issue?  Have an suggestions?  I've already tried having him clear his path before calling the Python from Portable Python with the absolute paths (which didn't help), though he is able to run the GTK demo.

Besides the update to 1.8.1, I also now call python.exe instead of pythonw.exe when calling meld.exe with parameters.  This allows you to call Meld from the commandline without pythonw exiting right away (the only downside being that a dialog box for python appears in that case -- not sure there's really a way around this).  When calling without parameters (for example from shortcuts), it continues to call pythonw.  The issue list for this installer release can be seen here.

What is Meld?
-------------

Meld is a visual diff and merge tool. It lets you compare two or three files,
and updates the comparisons while you edit them in-place. You can also compare
folders, launching comparisons of individual files as desired. Last but by no
means least, Meld lets you work with your current changes in a wide variety of
version control systems, including Git, Bazaar, Mercurial, Subversion and CVS.
