CMP ST-UNIX User's Manual CMP
COMMAND
cmp - file comparator.
FORMAT
cmp [ -l ] [ -s ] file1 file2
DESCRIPTION
The two files are compared with value 0 returned if they are
the same, 1 otherwise. Specifying a `-' for _✓f_✓i_✓l_✓e_✓1 will
cause standard input to be read instead. _✓C_✓m_✓p acts quietly
if the files are equivalent. If they are different, then
the byte and line number of the first difference is printed
and unless the -l option is used _✓c_✓m_✓p will exit.
Options:
-l Gives the byte number (in decimal) and the differing
bytes (in octal) for each difference.
-s Acts quietly even if files are different.
