btarcmp

BTARCMP(1)						      General Commands Manual							BTARCMP(1)

NAME

       btarcmp - a diff for Barry tar backup files

SYNOPSIS

       btarcmp [-b][-d db][-D db][-h][-I charset][-P][-S][-v] tar0 tar1

DESCRIPTION

       btarcmp	takes  two  Barry  backup  tar	files  on the command line, and displays the differences it finds between them.  If records can be
       parsed, individual field differences are also displayed.  Added and removed records are noted.  Differences in  database  availability  are
       noted as well.  If unable to parse the records, hex dumps are used.

OPTIONS

       -b     Use brief filename markers.  Useful when tar filenames are extremely long.

       -d db  Name  of	database  to compare.  Can be used multiple times to compare multiple databases.  If not specified, all databases are com-
	      pared.

       -D db  Name of database to skip.  Can be used multiple times.  Overrides all other database selection options.

       -h     Show summary of options.

       -I charset
	      Specifies the iconv charset to use for converting international strings.	The Blackberry uses the  WINDOWS-1252  charset,  which	is
	      incompatible with the more common code pages used in Linux.  The most useful charset to use with this option is UTF-8, and is highly
	      recommended.  Any other charset available via 'iconv --list' can be used here too, but may not be successful for some character con-
	      versions.

       -S     Displays list of known database records, which can be parsed.

       -v     Verbose output, which includes record data of added and deleted records in the output.  If used twice, hex data is printed as well.

AUTHOR

       btarcmp is part of the Barry project.
