Differ compiler directive from comment in Delphi source code
for delphi source code comparsion when comparing with ignoring white chars, here are bug in comparing compiler directives
e.g.
{$DEFINE XYZ} - this is compiler directive
is not same as
{ $DEFINE XYZ} - this is comment
===================
Comments are ignored by the compiler, except when they function as separators (delimiting adjacent tokens) or compiler directives.
There are several ways to construct comments:{ Text between a left brace and a right brace constitutes a comment. }
(* Text between a left-parenthesis-plus-asterisk and anasterisk-plus-right-parenthesis also constitutes a comment. *)
// Any text between a double-slash and the end of…

Add options to specify background color for changed lines/blocks/sections
Sometimes small changes are hard to spot visually i.e. single char. An option to have a seperate background colour for whole lines/blocks/sections that include changes would help focus my attention to a that block to then find the smaller change.

Copy File Progress Bar
File copy operations can take a long time. During this process there is no feedback indicating progress or expected wait time for the copy process to complete. For me, a simple progress bar with an indication of how far along the process is would suffice. Currently, clicking anywhere in the application during a long copy process causes Windows to report the application as "not responding", which is not really the case. Please add a progress bar for long running operations.

Make Code Compare impervious to minor reformatting
For instance, moving a { sign on the next line.
Sometimes the auto-formatting of the IDE makes sweeping changes across a file and I'd like to be able to only see the non-trivial changes highlighted.

Ability to specify text substitutions to ignore as differences
When doing a comparison between two source files, I want to specify text substitutions to ignore as differences.

Highlight the current block
It would be helpful to highlight the current block (the cursor position). If you have many changes in the file and go through the changes the current position is sometimes hard to identify. It would be great to highlight the current block by using another color than gray for the border.

Option to close the compare window without prompting to save it
Add option to close the compare window without checking if I want to save the comparison document. I never do and it interrupts my workflow so an option to turn this off would be great.

Reload comparison when file saved from another tab/comparison
Steps to see what I mean:
1. Open a 2-way file comparison.
2. Choose File > Compare Current File.
3. Add some new-lines (or make some other change) to the file in the new editor that opens.
4. Save the file in that editor.
5. Return to the original file comparison.
The changes to the file in the other editor are not shown and if the file is saved from the original comparison, the changes made in the other editor will be lost.Real world use case was having a file opened in two comparisons, one with its previous revision,…
