bcom - binary compare utility.
Usage: bcom file1 file2
* Bcom performs a byte by byte comparison of two binary files and
prints the byte locations when the files differ and when they
resume. Bcom may be used on text files but is primarily intended
for binary (find a good copy of 'diff' for text).
Differs from other compare utilities by:
- continuing after first difference until user interrupts.
- printing message if files are equal.
- locations printed in sector-byte format.
* Locations specifications are compatible with 'NewZap', and are
displayed as follows:
< decimal_sector_number(1-n) ><space>< hex_byte_number(000-1FF) >
* Runnable from CLI only.
* Normal output is to screen. Output to printer or file using
AmigaDos I/O redirection. Example:
bcom >PRT: file1 file2 or bcom >output_file file1 file2
* Interruptable using CTRL-C
