           Summary: diff page of kompare's opening dialog confusing and not
                    fool-proof
           Product: kompare

         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kompare-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: winfried_mb2 casema nl


Version:           3.3 (using KDE KDE 3.5.0)

When Kompare starts, the first dialog has a page "files" where you can enter 2 files to compare. The next page is called "diff", so one can easily think that you can enter a diff file there. One should however enter the diff program there. This is confusing. 

Moreover, when you accidently enter the path of a diff file in the "Diff program" field and click the compare button, Kompare hangs.
