DIRCMP(C)                                  UNIX System V



     Name
          dircmp - compares directories


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


     Description
          dircmp  examines  dir1  and  dir2  and  generates  tabulated
          information  about the contents of the directories. Listings
          of files that are unique to each directory are generated  in
          addition  to  a list that indicates whether the files common
          to both directories have the same contents.

          There are three options available:

          -d      Performs a full diff  on  each  pair  of  like-named
                  files   if   the  contents  of  the  files  are  not
                  identical.

          -s      Suppresses output of identical filenames.

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