WinMerge - Open source diff and merge tool

Recently came across WinMerge while surfing / reading blogs in one of those slack times. Looks like a cool tool. Would be evaluating over next few days and then it's either of WinDiff OR WinMerge. Until now have used windiff for diffs between files and folders. Never had need for a merge ever.

First impressions....

- looks good
- loads fast
- fast file comparison]

Will keep every one posted on how it goes....

My dev toolkit

This is a list of development tools I have had opportunity to use and which I found to be really good in their class. Most of these tools are open source and free though you would find some commercial tools too in the list. These are either tools which either have no open source alternative OR I am too used to them.

I expect this list to be very dynamic as I use/ stop using some tools, move on to better ones..

• SVN/ Tortoise SVN --> Version Control System/ Client

• IntelliJ IDEA --> A JAVA IDE. Really really good. It is costly but worth every $

• Apache Ant --> JAva Build library

• Putty - Telnet Client

• Win Diff --> Compare file/ directories

• WinSCP --> FTP/ SFTP Client

• Apache JMeter --> 100% Java based Load Testing and Performance measurement tool

• Hudson --> A continuous build system. For a nighly build system

• Quartz --> A Job scheduling system. For Applications that need to do something at regular interval or at a fixed points in time

About this blog

This is one of the n numbers of blog I have created over last few years but never maintained. This time I have committed my self to keep it fresh with regular blogging.

The blog is meant to be a development reference guide for myself. It would serve it's purpose if it is able to record my thoughts. Here 'my thoughts' means ideas/ to-do things related to technology, something I am really passionate about.

let's see how it goes.......:)))))
