SDM Config File Comparer

Canon digital camera users who employ tweaking packages such as the Stereo Data Maker and edit their configuration files, could require an easy way of identifying differences in separate files. SDM Config File Comparer is here to help people automatically determine where discrepancies occur in their SDM CFG files by comparing them side by side and therefore saving them from manual searching.

SDM Config File Comparer offers a basic interface that allows one to easily input the configuration files that need to be compared for spotting differences. Immediately after loading both of the files that are required, the application will highlight the configuration lines where differences occur in red fonts, therefore making them highly visible.

Because of its straightforward handling, the utility will greatly increase the workflow of those who are editing configuration files and need to determine where differences occur. However, users must be aware that SDM Config File Comparer will only browse CFG SDM files and not edit them. For editing of such files, we recommend the SDM Config File Editor utility, from the same developer.

Once the required configuration files are loaded and the differences are identified, people are able to easily browse through them, in a step-by-step manner. The application will allow them to use two dedicated navigation buttons, which will toggle between the found discrepancies.

However, although it does change the font color for the configuration lines where differences are encountered, it might have been better for SDM Config File Comparer to offer full body highlighting. Experienced users might not appreciate the fact that they cannot edit the CFG files directly and have to return to the dedicated editor.

This utility will provide an efficient way of identifying differences in SDM configuration files, especially useful for those who edit such files and prefer to avoid losing time with manual searches. Featuring an intuitive handling and instantaneous feedback, the application will easily determine discrepancies in the inputted files and allow one to browse them.
