I must confess that I do not fully understand why a diff tool needs to be built into a text editor. Was it the missing ability to edit the merged file in File Merge that made this tool unusable?
I guess you would have to have used the BBEdit file differences tool to appreciate how useful it is. Many times, I find myself trying to adjudicate differences between two text files (say a weblog config file on my server with a new config file included in an updated of the blog software), etc. This is when I need to call on BBEdit. I haven't tried File Merge.
