DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN
This manual page documents the GNU version of ccoommmm. ccoommmm
prints lines that are common, and lines that are unique,
to two input files. The two files must be sorted before
ccoommmm can be used. The file name `-' means the standard
input.
With no options, ccoommmm produces three column output. Col-
umn one contains lines unique to _f_i_l_e_1, column two con-
tains lines unique to _f_i_l_e_2, and column three contains
lines common to both files.
OOPPTTIIOONNSS
The options _-_1, _-_2, and _-_3 suppress printing of the corre-
sponding columns.
_-_-_h_e_l_p Print a usage message and exit with a non-zero sta-
tus.
_-_-_v_e_r_s_i_o_n
Print version information on standard error then
exit.
