yes.

Fixed in revision 2835.

There's no way to switch that. TSVN calls TMerge that way.
Ok, you could specify TortoiseMerge as a "custom" diff program and pass
the parameters and paths the other way around...

Yes.

The size of that linediff bar is calculated according to the font specs.
Seems the font sizes aren't really correct, i.e. they don't take chars
into account which go below the actual line...
