Hi,

in dolphin, there's an entry `Compare Files' in `Tools' menu. It's always grayed out, no matter if I select two files or two directories. How can I enable it, what needs to be configured? I already have kdiff3 installed, but it only registers itself for konqueror.


Thanks in advance,
Stefan

Ok, so I can answer this myself, don't know why I didn't find this when I first googled for it: you need to have kompare installed, see http://docs.kde.org/stable/en/kdebase-a ... pare-files

kompare is installed on my kubuntu but this optin isn't available in dolphin

Try to manualy add it to toolbar.

I am also using kubuntu with kompare installed and have this option.

ok, I did that. I can see this option in my dolphin's toolbar but I can use it.
