I would want "a.." to be left from the first file. "b.." & "c.."(because all files end with 2 end of lines) to matched from both files.  And "d to be left from second file.

This shold not match at all. For I want to only match full strings.

I have 2 exports of the registry (from Widows CE). I woulld like to see the differences beetween the 2. What key/va ues both have, and what is in one and not in the other. Etc.
Whope its clearer now what I want.
