• Thumbnail view of all diffs
• Differentiates between changed, removed and added lines
• Instance highlighting - double click or search for a word to show all instances of it
• Syntax highlighting
• Supports Unicode and auto detects encoding (and warns if encoding mismatch)
• Customizable interface
• In-line diffs live updated as you type
• Windows Explorer shell integration
• Portable (can be run directly from an external device)
