## Used libraries
* [DiffPlex](https://github.com/mmanela/diffplex)
* [ScintillaNET](https://github.com/jacobslusser/ScintillaNET)
* [Some of my own](https://github.com/VPKSoft)

## The SUO package
The SUO stands for [unofficial.ScintillaNET](https://www.nuget.org/packages/unofficial.ScintillaNET/) dependency which is updated with the recent pull requests build from this [ScintillaNET fork](https://github.com/VPKSoft/ScintillaNET) from the original [ScintillaNET](https://github.com/jacobslusser/ScintillaNET). The fork was made to try to keep up with the changes to the code base suggested by users as the official version is getting outdated for unknown reason(s) 🙄.

## Thanks to
* [bobhodge](https://github.com/bobhodge) For implementing horizontal scrolling sync; plus mousewheel scrolling.
* [XJmichaelw](https://github.com/XJmichaelw) For adding IsEntireLineHighlighted attribute, which when set to true, will set the entire background of a line to a given colour corresponding to the change type for that line. And a bug fix leading to a crash when a form containing the control was minimized.
* [avstri](https://github.com/avstri) for pointing out the speed up via a StringBuilder [#1](https://github.com/VPKSoft/ScintillaDiff/issues/1).

* [igitur](https://github.com/igitur) For pointing out the .NET Framework 4 level-drop requirement

* [goroggy](https://github.com/goroggy) For pointing out the need for a character diff ([#7](https://github.com/VPKSoft/ScintillaDiff/issues/7)).
