DESCRIPTION
Meld is a graphical diff and merge tool that allows a user to visually
compare two or three files simultaneously and edit the files in place.
Differences are updated in real-time and highlighted using color cod-
ing. Users can also compare two or three directories at a time and
launch file comparisons. In addition, users can browse working copies
of the code from popular version control systems including CVS, Subver-
sion, Bazaar-ng and Mercurial.
More extensive help information for Meld is included in the graphical
interface.
