SYNOPSIS

7     zipcmp [-hipqtVv] archive1 archive2

DESCRIPTION

10     zipcmp compares the zip archives or directories archive1 and archive2 and
11     checks if they contain the same files, comparing their names, uncom‐
12     pressed sizes, and CRCs.  File order and compressed size differences are
13     ignored.
14
15     Supported options:
16
17     -h   Display a short help message and exit.
18
19     -i   Compare names ignoring case distinctions.
20
21     -p   Enable paranoid checks.  Compares extra fields and other meta data.
22          (Automatically disabled if one of the archives is a directory.)
23
24     -q   Quiet mode.  Compare -v.
25
26     -t   Test zip files by comparing the contents to their checksums.
27
28     -V   Display version information and exit.
29
30     -v   Verbose mode.  Print details about differences to stdout.  (This is
31          the default.)
32

EXIT STATUS

34     zipcmp exits 0 if the two archives contain the same files, 1 if they dif‐
35     fer, and >1 if an error occurred.
