The left/middle/right windows are named A/B/C and have the blue/green/magenta
|

|
color respectively.

If one file is the same and one file is different on a line then the
|
|
|
color shows which file is different. The red color means that both other
|
|
|
files are different.

merges as much as possible. The result is presented in an editable window

buttons A/B/C from the button-bar to select the source that should be used.
|

You can also select more than one source. Since this output window is an

editor even conflicts which need further corrections can be solved here without
|
|

requiring another tool.
