Subject: GNU-diff-cmp-20.sit.hqx: GNU diff and cmp 2.0 standalone
This is the port of the GNU diff and cmp 2.0 as standalone application
to the Mac with THINK C 5.0.4. It uses the THINK C console and command
line interface. I helped myself by using some of the changes in the port
to MPW and I tried to combine them with my own changes for THINK C. I
had to implement the stat.h and dirent.h functionality because they are
not part of the THINK C ANSI or Unix libraries. Other changes were
parameter type casting due to a bug in THINK C. THINK C doesn't
automatically cast pointer of pointer to const pointer of pointer (e.g.,
char ** to const char **), although it works with pointer of pointer to
pointer of const pointer or pointer to const pointer casting.
