.TH MCOMP 1 "Mon Mar 3 11:58:15 COT 2003" "" "Mtools Users Manual"
.SH NAME
mcomp \- Compares two files using mtools
.SH SYNOPSIS
.\" The command line
.B mcomp
.I file-on-floppy
.I local-file
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B mcomp
compares two files, the first one must be on a floppy disk so it can
be accessed via \fBmtools\fR.
It is not strictly necessary on Debian GNU/Linux, because the diffutils
\fBcmp\fR(1) program provides the same capability after copying the
file locally with
.B mcopy
.I file
.I destination
but this utility is provided in the mtools package for other platforms and
is retained here for completeness.
