Kaleidoscope v3

Kaleidoscope v3 is a macOS application for inspecting differences in text and image files, as well as folder contents. This Homebrew entry installs the v3 line, a legacy release distinct from the current Kaleidoscope 7 promoted on the homepage.

• Compare text with character-level differences, and navigate between changes.
• Compare images using split, blink, drag, or difference views to reveal visual changes.
• Compare folder trees and inspect their contents, with options to copy items between sides.
• Work with Git-related differences, including merge conflicts and changes between commits.

Install with brew install --cask kaleidoscope@3. The cask installs Kaleidoscope.app and runs an integration script that installs ksdiff in Homebrew’s bin directory. This cask conflicts with kaleidoscope and kaleidoscope@2, so those casks cannot be installed alongside it. The package is a legacy v3 release; the homepage describes a newer major version.
