title: Compare line by line in notepad++
body: <blockquote>
    <p>Consider a file which has a line like this:</p>
    
    <p>"STDHKD7" "STD" "PM" "HKD" 7 0 "" "" "" "" "" yes yes "FILE" "fx.csv"
    yes no 0 1 </p>
    
    <p>Next consider a file which has a line like this:</p>
    
    <p>"STDHKD7" "STD" "PM" "HKD" 7 0 "" "" "" "" "" yes yes "FILE" "fx.csv"
    yes no 0 2</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>As you can see there is a difference in the end of 2 instead of 1. These lines are not on the same line in the document so I cannot use the default notepad++ comparison tool. I want to be able to take the first line some somehow "find a match" (maybe up to a certain number of characters) in the other file, no matter what line that match is on. This in order to find differences like the one highlighted above.</p>
