NAME

SYNOPSIS

11       bzcmp [ cmp_options ] file1 [ file2 ]
12       bzdiff [ diff_options ] file1 [ file2 ]

DESCRIPTION

15       Bzcmp  and  bzdiff  are  used  to invoke the cmp or the diff program on
16       bzip2 compressed files.  All options specified are passed  directly  to
17       cmp  or diff.  If only 1 file is specified, then the files compared are
18       file1 and an uncompressed file1.bz2.  If two files are specified,  then
19       they  are  uncompressed  if necessary and fed to cmp or diff.  The exit
20       status from cmp or diff is preserved.

BUGS

26       Messages from the cmp or diff programs  refer  to  temporary  filenames
27       instead of those specified.
