_compare Utility - Program Compare

Syntax

call "_compare"{,filelist}

Description

The _compare utility compares PRO/5 programs specified in filelist. If more than one program is selected for comparison, the directory to search must be specified. Only the programs that exist in both directories will be compared. If only one program is selected, the program name to compare it to must be specified.

There are two forms of output from _compare: a detailed listing, and a simple compare.

A detailed listing will output the text of the program lines that either do not compare or are not present in one of the two programs. A simple compare will output the compare status as "Compared OK," "Compare failed," or "Not found."
