The `Merge` method presents a GUI with all the information one needs to know in order to perform the merge. Note that all functions, operators and scripts that do equal are on the `=` tab while all the others are on the `≠` tab.

CompareSimple
CompareSimple is part of the CategoryAplTree project.
Overview
CompareSimple offers a couple of methods designed to compare functions, operators, scripts and files. It is also able to deal with SALTed files as well as acre component files.
Methods
There are just two main functions:
Match
Match takes names of functions or operators or scripts and compares the source code. Note that taking the source code with ⎕CR or ⎕SRC and then ≡ them is not always going to work: white spaces as well as formatting problems might result in a 0 when the source code is in fact identicall. Match deals with these problems properly.
These
These accepts a varity of arguments listed underneath. According to its arguments it tries to figure out what your intention is and carries out the appropriate action.
Script / Script
Compare the two scripts. Note that you can specify name(s) as well as reference(s).
Script / name of a *.dyalog file
Compare the workspace script with the file.
Script
This syntax requeires "Script" to be a SALTed script. In that case the workspace script is compared with its SALTed source file.
Name of a native file / name of a native file
Compare the two files.
Function name / function name
Compare two functions in the workspace.
Function name / name of a native file
Compare the function in the workspace with the file.
Function name / name of an acre component file
Compare the function in the workspace with the acre component file.
Function name
If there is an acre component file holding that function the workspace version is compared with any of the components.
Namespace / namespace
Note that this works only with named namespaces, although the argument might be either references or names pointing to the two namespaces.
