SYNOPSIS
file1 file2 [n]
DESCRIPTION
compares two files and produces output identical to what would be produced by (see diff(1)), specifying changes that must be made to make
the files identical. is designed for handling files that are too large for but it can be used on files of any length.
processes files as follows:
o Ignore lines common to the beginning of both files.
o Split the remainder of each file into n-line segments, then execute on corresponding segments. The default value of n is 3500.
Command-Line Arguments
recognizes the following command-line arguments:
file1
file2 Names of two files to be compared by If file1 or file2 (but not both) is standard input is used instead.
n If a numeric value is present as the third argument, the files are divided into n-line segments before processing by
Default value for n is 3500. This option is useful when 3500-line segments are too large for processing by
Silent option suppresses diagnostic printing by
but does not suppress possible error messages from If the n and arguments are both used, the n argument must precede the
option on the command line or it will not be properly recognized.
