Diff like dialog box #101

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

Could you please add a diff like dialog box for each fix that need to be 
applied.
When a difference is found between current preferences and what is setup in 
epf, you can only choose between "Fix now", "Fix later", and "Never fix", but 
you don't really know what change will be applied.

Added labels: Type-Enhancement
Removed labels: Type-Defect

How about showing the preference pane with the the preferences from the task 
applied (without them being applied if the use cancels the dialog) and allowing 
the user to Apply the changes.

That should be possible without requiring any new UI. And looking at the 
preference pane should make more sense than trying to decipher the contents of 
an epf.

To be fair, I like this idea, but Workspace Mechanic is now in maintenance 
mode. What this means:
* Critical bugs fixed only.
* No new features (with very rare exceptions.)
* I will accept well-written patch, which must contain thorough tests.
