PROGRAM: COMPARE.EXE - for UNIX file listings
VERSION: 1.0
USE: COMPARE <Oldfile> <Newfile>
EXAMPLE: COMPARE 0794.cap 0108.cap
RESULT: The program would compare the UNIX file entries in each
file and make an output file of any files that exist in
the NEWFILE file, and not in the OLD one.
OUTPUT FILE NAME is the first 4 chars of each file, so for the
the above example it would be 07940108.txt.
COMMENTS: I found it real hard to keep track of the new files in a
lot of systems, so I wrote this Q&D program. It'll search
your capture files for -- (a UNIX file line) then compare
with OLDFILE. It'll ignore any other lines so you don't
need a neat capture file. It's written in Basic.

NOTES: This program can freely go anywhere and everywhere. Drop me a note
if you're using this in some far-away place. I'd like to see
how far it goes.
ERRORS: I didn't want to make a big huge program with error-checking
routines and everything, so if you type an invalid file name,
it'll just crash on ya!
Have a good life, eh!
