Feature Request to add the functionality to compare 2 files with different names while comparing 2 folders.

Example with one file selected in each panel (bold = selected)

bar1.txt | bar1.txt <- select + right-click + compare

bar2.txt | bar2.txt

foo1.txt | foo1.txt

foo2.txt | foo2.txt

Here above, foo2.txt and bar1.txt are selected and with the context menu can be compared. Today only files with the same name can be compared.

By extension, it would be also interesting to select 2 files in the same panel (left or right) and compare them.

This is very useful for comparing "related" files but with different names.

Thanks to the team, Meld is a great tool.
