Dear PC-SIG:
Thanks for your letter concerning the second edition of your
Encyclopedia of Shareware. I Have prepared new versions of FC and
FCDOC for inclusion in the Encyclopedia and on your CD ROM disk.
These programs are on the enclosed diskette. I have also enclosed a
submission form for the new programs.
I'd like to suggest the following description for the new edition:
FC and FCDOC
Author version 2.2
Disk number 1584
Special Requirements: None.
Author Registration: $25.00.
FC compares two ASCII text files and lists the differences between
them line by line. FC never gets confused or "unsynchronized" (as
some comparison programs can), and never misses matching lines.
FC identifies changed WORDS as well as changed lines. This
feature allows you to identify differences at the lowest level of
detail.
Several features are included for "C" programmers. FC can ignore
"C" program white-space changes, so only changes in program
meaning are listed. If you have two versions of a program
containing separate changes, FC can combine them to make a single
program.
FCDOC is similar to FC, except that it compares English documents
instead of ASCII text files. FCDOC ignores format differences, so
you see CONTENT changes without being distracted.
Both programs provide other helpful features such as comparing
multiple files in one run, displaying in several output formats,
and customizing default options to suit your needs.
An ASCII copy of this letter is included on the disk in file LETTER.
Sincerely,
Mike Albert
