Rather than diff(1), perhaps comm(1) is a better choice. You still need =
to
sort the input files though:
% sort file1 > file1.sorted
% sort file2 > file2.sorted
% comm -3 file1.sorted file2.sorted
This will print two columns of output. The first column consists of line=
s
that are only in file1, and the second of lines that are only in file2.
Cheers,
Matthew
