NAME
	aecomp - compare two changes

SYNOPSIS
	aecomp number [ number ]

DESCRIPTION
	The aecomp script is used to compare two changes, using tkdiff(1) to display the changes.  If you give one change on the command line, the
	other change is determined in the usual way.  If you give two changes, those are the two compared.  Both changes must be in the being
	developed state (it's only a script, after all).

	Basically, aecomp allows you to specify two project/change pairs (ie the compared changes don't have to be in the same branch or project).
	aecomp attempts to use defaults (for project and change number) where possible.  As a minimum, it needs a single change number as an
	option. A list of files which are common between the two changes is constructed and presented.	Double clicking on any of the file names
	will tkdiff the two versions (ie the files in each change).

	It is useful after you have used aeclone(1), then modified a change and subsequently are wondering what on earth you did.  Files are con-
	sidered to be "common" if they have the same name.  In the case of a file which has been moved, it's original filename is used (the diff
	of course takes place against the new file name).
