If this has been made clear in other posts, please excuse me. I only found this post (http://www.scootersoftware.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=5168&highlight=output+filename), which seems to be suggesting that what I want is not possible. But I am not 100% sure that this is the same functionality.

I have two directories to compare using BC scripts, and I want to save the html reports for each pair of files in a separate html file. (All I want, basically, is a report of all my code diffs)

That is, I want to compare all source files, and save all difference reports (separately).

orig/foo.cpp with new/foo.cpp and save the differences in diffs/foo.cpp.html

orig/foo.h with new/foo.h and save the diffs in diffs/foo.h.html

...and so on.

Is this possible with BC? Or must the output filename always be a static "report.txt"

Hello,

No problem. Thanks for taking the time to search, but if you have trouble finding the answer please feel free to ask.

We do not have a way of supporting this currently. You can select multiple files and generate a report showing the difference text, but this will be one large file and not several small ones.

You can select pairs of files individually to generate a report for each.

I have added your notes to our Customer Wishlist.
