     NAME
          dircmp - directory comparison

     SYNOPSIS
          dircmp [-d] [-s] [-wn] dir1 dir2

     DESCRIPTION
          dircmp examines dir1 and dir2 and generates various tabulat-
          ed information about the contents of the directories. List-
          ings of files that are unique to each directory are generat-
          ed for all the flag options.  If no flag option is entered,
          a list is output indicating whether the filenames common to
          both directories have the same contents.

          -d  Compare the contents of files with the same name in both
              directories and output a list telling what must be
              changed in the two files to bring them into agreement.
              The list format is described in diff(1).

          -s  Suppress messages about identical files.

          -wn Change the width of the output line to n characters.
              The default width is 72.

     EXAMPLES
               dircmp d1 d2

          will show the differences between the directories d1 and d2.
