COMP
Compares the contents of a file (or group of files) to another
See also <FC> <DISKCOMP>
COMMAND TYPE: External VERSION: 2.0 and up
USE: COMP [d:][path][filename] [d:][path][filename]
The first d: path filename specifies the first set of files to be
compared. The second d: path filename specifies the second set of files to
be compared. Either set may contain wildcards. If no filename is
specified, *.* is assumed.
COMP compares files byte for byte. Any bytes that do not match are
displayed. A typical error message would look like:
Compare error at OFFSET XXXX
File 1 = 17
File 2 = 26
After 10 errors, COMP will abort.
EXAMPLE: COMP A:HELP.* C:
compares the contents of all files with the filename of HELP and any
extension on drive A: to files on drive C: with matching filenames.
