Description Ross Burton 2001-09-20 09:06:51 UTC 
If I drag a file into another directory and a file with that name already
exists, it would be nice to see more information about the file to decide,
such as file size, modification date etc.

What would be really nice is the ability to view the two files, to compare
them.

Definitely a good idea, especially when you are overwriting
multiple files.
