--- Comment #1 from Jens Reuterberg <jensreu at kolabnow.com> ---
For clarity of the icons - I am not a big Krusader user myself so just 
want to ask some (perhaps obvious) questions concerning the usage so we 
don't make icons that are more confusing than anything else.

Show Equal Files - would an equal sign be clear enough or would for 
example an "equal sign within a document" make more sense (or less)?
Show Unequal Files - should share some kind of similarity with the 
Equal Files icon so that both are "connected" in my logic (which is why 
say a document or file symbol with an equal/unequal sign in it would 
make more sense in my mind). But maybe that would be muddling the 
understanding of it.
Swap - since that might look like a "reload" icon would say a line in 
the middle or something that represent the two panels make sense?

Am I way of base in this thinking?
