   dircmp(1)        (Directory and File Management Utilities)        dircmp(1)


   NAME
         dircmp - directory comparison

   SYNOPSIS
         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 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.
