       -i SKIP	--ignore-initial=SKIP
	      Skip the first SKIP bytes of input.

       -i SKIP1:SKIP2  --ignore-initial=SKIP1:SKIP2

	      Skip the first SKIP1 bytes of FILE1 and the first SKIP2 bytes of FILE2.

       -l  --verbose
	      Output byte numbers and values of all differing bytes.

       -n LIMIT  --bytes=LIMIT
