Hello everyone
A few years Ago the user radoulov posted a fancy solution for a problem, which was about finding common lines (gene variation names) between multiple samples (files). The code was:
awk 'END {
for (R in rec) {
n = split(rec, t, "/")
if (n > 1)
dup = dup ?... (5 Replies)
Thanks everyone. I got that problem solved.

Hi! I would like to comm -12 with one file and with all of the files in another folder that has a 100 files or more (that file is not in that folder) to find common text lines. I would like to have each case that they have common lines to be written to a different output file and the names of the... (6 Replies)
Could it be possible to find common lines between all of the files in one folder? Just like comm -12 . So all of the files two at a time. I would like all of the outcomes to be written to a different files, and the file names could be simply numbers - 1 , 2 , 3 etc. All of the file names contain... (19 Replies)

bdiff
bdiff(1) General Commands Manual bdiff(1)NAME
bdiff - Finds differences in large files
SYNOPSIS
bdiff file1 file2 [number] [-s]
bdiff - file2 [number] [-s]
bdiff file1 - [number] [-s]
The bdiff command compares file1 and file2 and writes information about their differing lines to standard output. If either filename is -
(dash), bdiff reads standard input.
OPTIONS
Suppresses error messages. (May either precede or follow the number argument if it is specified.)
DESCRIPTION
The bdiff command uses diff to find lines that must be changed in two files to make them identical (see the diff command). Its primary
purpose is to permit processing of files that are too large for diff.
The bdiff command ignores lines common to the beginning of both files, splits the remainders into sections of number lines, and runs diff
on the sections. The output is then processed to make it look as if diff had processed the files whole.
If you do not specify number, a system default is used. In some cases, the number you specify or the default number may be too large for
diff. If bdiff fails, specify a smaller value for number and try again.
Note that because of file segmenting, bdiff does not necessarily find the smallest possible set of file differences. In general, although
the output is similar, using bdiff is not the equivalent of using diff.
NOTES
The diff command is executed by a child process, generated by forking, and communicates with bdiff through pipes.
It should not normally be necessary to use this command, since diff can handle most large files.
EXIT STATUS
No differences. Differences found. An error occurred.
