Crash when compare two completely different files.

[ArkadiuszMichalski]

Hi, I get crash when compare two completely different files. I use Build time: Mar 2 2020, 15:16:47 compare version. Step to reproduce:

1. Open first localize file, like english.xml.
2. Open second localize file, like german.xml.
3. Do compare.

NPP will crash every time when do above steps.

@ArkadiuszMichalski ,

Perhaps your version of Notepad++ is above 7.7. ComparePlus plugin is still in development - it is not released yet. The development build is not suited for Notepad++ versions above 7.7 (included) - the changes needed by the new Scintilla component are not integrated yet. It will be done for the official release.

Implemented/fixed and will be included in the first ComparePlus plugin release coming in a month or so.
