NAME
     dircmp - directory comparison

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

DESCRIPTION
     dircmp examines dir1 and dir2 and generates various tabu-
     lated information about the contents of the directories.
     Listings of files that are unique to each directory are gen-
     erated for all the options.  If no option is entered, a list
     is output indicating whether the file names 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.
