Beyond Compare 3 Make Case Sensitive within Scripts

I have already knew that we can call BC3 in the windows cmd with the format "BCompare.exe /silent @scrip_file.txt txt1 txt2 output.html". So I would like to know, how to write the script_file.txt, which make the comparison case sensitive, for example shows the difference between "apple" in txt1 and "APPLE" in txt2?

Thank you.

Solution

  • It isn't possible to make a comparison case sensitive using a scripting command. Instead, edit the default session settings in the GUI, which will affect scripts.

    To edit default Text Compare session settings in Beyond Compare 3:

    1. Run Beyond Compare 3.
    2. In the Saved sessions list, expand Edit session defaults.
    3. Select Text Compare.
    4. Go to the Importance tab.
    5. Check Character case to make it important, then Save.
