"Smart" front end for Beyond Compare

I did a small change to my v2.2 LD fork, which is what I'm still using these days (mainly because I've had no reason to change it). Don't know if it'll be of interest to anyone else, but maybe the change is worth merging into the main version. (Up to you, AussieBoykie!)

  • Added NEWWINDOW argument (passes /solo switch to make BComp.exe open a new window).
  • Updated default/fallback path to the Beyond Compare 4 one.

I'm running it from a button like this, so I can hold Shift to get a new window instead of a new tab:

@keydown:none
BeyondCompare
@keydown:shift
BeyondCompare NEWWINDOW

Here's the diff of the change. Very simple, as you can see:
