Not everyone. I've tried Beyond Compare (and Araxis Merge) and found them both to be more hassle than they're worth. Neither program would do the changes 100% correctly, as I always got a variety of errors from various files after using those two programs.

A manual list of changes/additions/deletions would be the easiest and most efficient way of upgrading to a new version. I'm honestly surprised they don't offer that level of support.

I didnt suggest using the program for upgrading the board. If the board is very heavily hacked, I agree that neither Beyond Compare nor Araxis Merge helps so much.. At least not for a newbie user. It's very likely that you'll miss a line and you would end up with a buggy/not working board. Although someone with vb/PHP experience can handle this, it's not for many newbies.

However I suggested using the program for detecting differences of UNHACKED 226 and UNHACKED 227. If you are going to compile such a list (as g-force offered), you'll be most comfortable with beyond compare or Araxis Merge, instead of comparing thousands of line by eye..
