I'm trying to run an analysis of two large directories, on two different
computers and only want to know what file names do not exist in one versus
the other and want to ignore file size or dates. I have run a directory
listing on each one, "file1" and "file2".

I assume this is a job for "diff", but don't see "ignore option" for dates
and file size, except perhaps a regex, which I don't grasp. How would I
determine only the filenames that exist in file1 but not in file2....???

Best regards,
