        dircmp                                                    Command

        SYNTAX

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


        DESCRIPTION

        Dircmp examines dir1 and dir2 and generates various tabulated
        information about the contents of the directories. Listings of
        files that are unique to each directory are generated for all the
        options.  If no 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 SOURCE SOURCE.2


        Compares the two directories, "SOURCE" and "SOURCE.2".  Prints
        the names of files that are unique to each directory, and
        identifies files that have the same name and identical or
        different contents.

        $ dircmp -s SOURCE SOURCE.2


        Compares the files in the directories "SOURCE" and "SOURCE.2".
        Lists the files that are unique to each directory, and the files
        with the same name but different contents.  Suppresses the
        printing of file names that have identical contents.

        $ dircmp -d -w80 SOURCE SOURCE.2

        Compares the files in "SOURCE" and "SOURCE.2".  Lists the files
        that are unique to each directory, files with the same name but
        identical or different contents, and creates scripts to make
        different files identical. Dircmp truncates the output lines so
        they are only 80 characters long.
