Kaleidoscope is a deceptively simple tool that can be used to compare pairs of files - both text and images. If you are working with text files of any kind, whether it is the first draft of your novel, or the makings of a web site, Kaleidoscope makes it easy to spot the differences between files.

When comparing files, keyboard navigation can be used to quickly jump from one change to another and text highlighting instantly highlights any differences that exist between documents. Three different program views are available, ensuring that Kaleidoscope works the way you want it to.

When used to compare image files, the application can be used to pick out the slightest changes that have been made to an image. Again, a number of different views are available to help you to visualise difference in different forms.

Kaleidoscope allows for easy navigation between files and support for multi-touch gestures makes it ideal for use on a laptop. There is support for a wide range of popular image and text formats and integrates with a number of popular tools such as Cornerstone, TextMate SVN, Versions and Git.
