What it does
Araxis Merge is a Windows and Mac comparison application for text, images and folders, with two- and three-way merging.
Use Professional's three-way comparison for a base draft and two independently edited copies. Standard supports two-way comparison and merging. Inspect linked, colour-coded passages, select changes into the result and revise it in place with undo. Ignore whitespace, line endings or matching regex lines only when those differences are irrelevant. Reports can be exported as HTML, XML or UNIX diff. A licence covers Windows and Mac permanently; one year of upgrades/support is included, with later renewal optional. The product offers a 30-day trial.
