NAME

COMP.COM - Binary comparison of files.

SYNOPSIS
comp [/#] file1 [file2]

DESCRIPTION
COMP.COM is a replacement for the MS-DOS command of the same name.
It compares the two files as binary files and prints out the
differences, one per line, with the character equivalents of any bytes
that correspond to printable characters.

If the second parameter is not given, the first file is compared with
a file of the same name in the current directory of the current drive.

Either argument may be a directory, or may contain wild cards (but

not both). Directory arguments refer to all files in the given
directory, but not subdirectories of the directory.

The `#' parameter gives the maximum number of errors to report per
file. Default is 65535 if file1 is a single file, 10 otherwise.

The '/' in the above synopsis refers to the switch character.
