[quote="leo"]My [Diff/Merge toolbar](https://resource.dopus.com/t/diff-merge-toolbar/2025/1) does this on the SvS (source vs source) buttons.

Well, sort of. 🙂 It sends the list of all selected files to the program. [/quote]

That was what I was trying not to do... I thought there was a another way to access specifically the first, the second, ... selected file...

But that's ok for now, it works...

thanks!
