The FrCXE "Compare" seems to work well/properly ... all the time.
The FrCXE "Select same in other pane" does not seem to work properly all the time.
Sometimes it will only highlight the first file listed in the other pane -
even if FrCXE has said the two panes are identical.
I guess ...

Sometimes I use FrC to change the timestamp of files.
I tab down to "Set timestamp", hit space,
tab down to modified, hit space,

I am always ...

with a shortcut/hotkey?
I have SPACEBAR set to trigger the XP contextmenu.

This past week I have done lots of things with FrCXE.

I tried out the FrC Delete/Copy/Move functionality.
FrC Delete won't delete my folders (with a hidden/system desktop.ini)

It would be nice if the popups had some &hotkeys ...
When I set FrC to ...

Here are some more items that might be of interest concerning FrCXE development ...

This stuff is called freeware.
If I setup/open a lemonade stand,
put up sign that says FREE lemonade - Donations welcome!
and then give dirty looks to everyone who takes some free lemonade ...

"Keep freeware free - make a donation" is also pretzel ...

I spent some time the previous 2 days
working on ways to open search results via the/a contextmenu
into various (portable/freeware) file explorers.
Sometimes I use search utilities that are not a part of a file-explorer.
I have FrC set to "single instance". I can open ...

Why don't you want a path with a drive letter? Long story short ... I have more than 1 XP laptop.
My laptop HDDs are 250gb or 320gb.
Each HDD has more than 1 partition.
Not all my XP laptops have only 1 internal HDD.
On my laptops with XPPro, I do not use simple file sharing.
I have ...

Today I had already noticed the new example wording you quote,

It is (still) not clear to me how to format

I don't find coloring the inactive pane too effective
because the stripes & highlighted sort column still really stand out ...
