* an integrated editor for comfortable solving of merge-conflicts,
* supports Unicode, UTF-8 and other codecs, autodetection via
byte-order-mark "BOM"
* supports KIO on KDE (allows accessing ftp, sftp, fish, smb etc.),
* Printing of differences,
* Manual alignment of lines,
* Automatic merging of version control history ($Log$),
* and has an intuitive graphical user interface.
