yes, this was my primary goal but seems Apple doesn't have a standard API to move files (or folders) on trash.

Consider VisualDiffer is only at 1.0 version and I want to add many features in future versions

I understand perfectly ^^
In fact, I'm programmer too, in military automation/GUI interfacing but under windows OS.
I have 7 years experience in compare tool using for my job and personal use.
Compare tools are very, simply, bad in MacOs X environment, and I which to see yours be the best one ;)

Indeed I've decided to write myself a valid compare tool on OSX because I was unable to find an existing valid solution.

I appreciate very much your feedback ;)

Surprised that a simple shell command implementation like
"mv /$path/$file /$user/.Trash/$file"
 doesn't work or hard to implement on MacOs >_<

It very simple to implement but bypass the UI so may be trouble to restore from Trash
