- On the Dropbox website, browse to the "Previous versions" page of any text file.
- A "Diff" column has been added where you can select which two versions to compare.
- Click the "Diff" button.
- If a diff tool is not yet configured, the options page opens where you can specify one. If you don't have one installed already, I recommend kdiff3. The setting is accessible from Tools > Extensions > DropboxDiff > Options.
- Otherwise, your diff tool should open.
This should run on Windows, Mac, and Linux. Please let me know if any issues come up.
Get DropboxDiff.

Cool tool dude. Would be cool to see it as a firefox extension :p
@Robbie - will make a note of it; thanks for the comment.
Really nice work on the DropboxDiff Chrome Extension - it's so cool and a real time saver. I can't tell you how many times I've been downloading files from the dropbox website into a temporary folder, then running diffmerge on them. (btw this works great with diffmerge too). So thanks for an excellent extension!
I LOVE YOU!
It's broken on the new site... :(
@Anonymous - I was afraid of that. I'm still waiting for my Dropbox account to be upgraded; I'm still seeing the old version. I'll get a fix out as soon as I can.
Hey Vic, awesome little tool. Eagerly awaiting the fix for the new site...
THANK YOU !!!
