Compare two text files and Only show the differences

Hi experts,
I'mvery new to shell scripting and learning it now

currently i am having a problem which may look easy to u Smilie

i have two files
File 1:
Start :Thu Nov 19 10:33:09 2009
ABCDGFSDJ.txt
APDemoNew.ppt
APDemoOutline.doc
ARDemoNew.ppt
ARDemoOutline.doc

File 2:
Start :Thu Nov 19 10:33:20 2009
ABCDGFSDJ.txt
APDemoNew.ppt
ARDemoNew.ppt
ARDemoOutline.doc

i should find the difference in file 2 compare to file 1
If any file missing, shell script should indicate the the missed file and write it in another text file(ex error.txt)
shell script should not compare the first line (date) for both test file(file1 and file2)

for example the output should be like in Error.txt
File missing :
APDemoOutline.doc

i would really appreciate if anyone can help me..

NAME
MojoMojo::Formatter::File - format file as XHTML DESCRIPTION
This formatter will format the file argument as XHTML. Usage: {{file TYPE filename}} {{file Text uploads/Files/test.txt}} TYPE is a plugin present in Formatter/File/ directory. Currently there are only three: Pod, DocBook and Text The plugin TYPE format only the file which the extension match with 'can_format' method. Respectively pod, xml and txt for existing plugins. For security reasons the path of file must be include in 'whitelisting' directory. You can use path_to(DIR) to describe directory in mojomojo.conf: Just an example to view the test pod file t/var/files/test.pod : Add this to mojomojo.conf : <Formatter::Dir> prefix_url /myfiles whitelisting __path_to(t/var/files)__ </Formatter::Dir> To see the pod content formatted in xhtml, write in the text area: {{file Pod path_to(t/var/files)test.pod}} To show recursively all files of directory see script/util/dir2mojomojo.pl script. To test it: # start mojomojo ./script/mojomojo_server.pl # run dir2mojomojo script ./script/util/dir2mojomojo.pl --dir=~/dev/mojomojo/t/var/files/ --url=/myfiles Connect to http://server:3000/myfiles/ METHODS

Takes a ref to the content as well as the context object. plugin Return the plugin to use with file attachment format Return the content formatted checkplugin Return 0 if plugin exist checkfile Directory must be include in whitelisting SEE ALSO
