It is free, and allows you to compare two text files and quickly merge changes as required. The reason I was needing to do this today was to do some work on the <a href=\"http:\/\/new.radio-active.net.au\/web3\/www.rf-developments.com\">RF Developments OzFlarm Glider system<\/a>, and my client had made some changes to the code. So I needed to merge the changes. Thanks to WinMerge it all happened really really quickly. <\/p>\n<p>SciToys has a description on how to build a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scitoys.com\/scitoys\/scitoys\/electro\/electro6.html\">Van Der Graff Generator using common materials including a coke can<\/a>. The design can actually be improved by adding a lightglobe at the base of the unit &#8211; and injects more electrons onto the rubber band making the design more efficient. Sure to be a hair-raising read. <\/p>\n<p>One musical instrument that I have always loved is the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.andrewkilpatrick.org\/mind\/laserharp\" \/>LaserHarp<\/a> as popularlized by Jean Michele Jarre. The link I have just provided about how to build your own. I just wish I had the muscical ability to be able to play such a thing if I built one. I gave this link to a friend and he informed me that he once pulled an all nighter with Jarre talking about music following a performance at the Opera Orchestra de Pairs. I would love to see Jarre in concert&#8230; His concerts are just massive events!<\/p>\n<p>Right now I have more programming to day. I want to get my reports to work&#8230; I keep running up against brick walls. Right now when I attempt to enter a formula into the report generation tool I gett the error message that &#8220;a number field or currency amount field is needed here&#8221;. You know you are in trouble when a google search does not even provide other people having the same error message&#8230;. Anyway I will get through this&#8230; Eventually.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One program that I use occasionally is WinMerge.
