Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between line-by-line and character-by-character comparison?
Line-by-line comparison shows which lines were added, deleted, or changed. Character-by-character comparison highlights exactly which characters within a line have changed. This tool shows differences at the character level for fine-grained detail.
Can I compare text while ignoring case?
Currently, comparisons are case-sensitive. 'Hello' and 'hello' are treated as different strings.
Can I see the differences at a glance?
Added text is highlighted in green and deleted text in red. Unchanged sections are displayed as-is, so you can immediately spot what changed.
Can it be used to compare code?
Yes, you can paste source code content and compare it. Source code, config files, JSON, XML, and any other text-based content can all be compared.
Can I save or export the comparison result?
Currently, only on-screen viewing is supported. If needed, you can use your browser's screenshot feature or copy the result text directly.
