Recently there's an activity in IT that forces the deletion of all
unauthorized softwares from all work machines.
Unfortunately, kdiff3 is one in the list.
As it is generally okay to use vimdiff as an alternative for kdiff3, A
gui tool is better suited for desktop workflows.
Known that MobaXterm is shipping a gui diff tool named MobaDiff. But
it only appears in the windows right click context menu.
Find the real application name takes me some time to search in the
windows registry. "MobaRTE.exe", which is the one invoked by
HKCR\*\shell\MobaDiff. And it was invoked with "-contextdiff" switch
to show MobaDiff UI, while when the switch is "-contextedit" it shows
MobaTextEditor.

In Emacs, when you try to automate some actions during every save
action, you will surely get to the before-save-hook and the
after-save-hook. Simply adding something like gofmt-before-save to
before-save-hook will save you tons of time to do the go-fmt.
And then, I meet eglot, and gopls will also save me tons of time doing
googling and api documentation navigation.
But eglot-ensure is not very friendly to the good old ways of how
after-save-hooks were designed to work. It makes the
before/after-save-hook a buffer local variable and it does not inherit
the variable's global value.
So, to make before/after-save-hook work again, experts start to adding
hooks to major mode specific hooks like this: emacs.md - Go
(opensource.google)
"""
;; Optional: install eglot-format-buffer as a save hook.
;; The depth of -10 places this before eglot's willSave notification,
;; so that that notification reports the actual contents that will be saved.
