CMP(1) "fases core"
# NAME
cmp - compare two files
# SYNOPSIS
*cmp* [*-l*|*-s*] *file1* *file2*
# DESCRIPTION
Compare two files. If the files are identical, *cmp* doesn't write anything
to standard output and returns 0. Else, with no options, it writes to
standard output the byte and line number at which it found the first
difference and returns 1.
*-l*
Write the byte number and the differing bytes for each difference in
decimal and octal respectively.
*-s*
Write nothing to standard output or standard error when the files
differ. Only write diagnostic messages to standard error.
# EXAMPLES
*cmp -s foo.txt bar.txt*
Compare foo.txt to bar.txt and return 1 if the files are different.
