File comparison software.


Recommended Posts

On a standard PC (Windows 98), is there any program which:-
a)Can compare the contents of one file with another and report if there are differences?
b) Can compare a list of files in one folder/directory with those in another directory and report any differences?

The family of programs you are after, are called "diff". Some versions of windows come with a utility called "cmp" which does a similar thing. Try opening a dos box and typing cmp /help

Otherwise, do a search for windiff or diff - there is lots of free versions out there.
