It compares two directory trees and tells you which files exist in one or both, and tells you which files are the same in both. SUSv2 deprecated it and recommended people use "diff -r" instead. SUSv3 doesn't mention it at all. Shaun: if you have access to a Tru64 or Solaris system, you can use their dircmp commands, since they are shell scripts. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@allantgroup.com
