I believe textpad and/or ultracompare can compare directories.

Subject: [HP3000-L] can mpex repeat forfiles be nested?

I have a need to compare each of the files in a fileset against each of
the files in a second fileset and look for dupicates. This could be
easily accomplished if mpex's repeat forfiles construct could be nested.
Is there any way to do this?

 

Example:

Compare each of the files in [log in to unmask] against each of the files in
[log in to unmask] using Robelle's compare program and check the compareoutcount
jcw after each.

The fileset [log in to unmask] contains foo1.data, foo2.data, ..., foo9.data.

The fileset [log in to unmask] contains sv1aa.data, sv2aa.data, ..., sv9aa.data,
sv1bb.data,sv2bb.data, ..., sv9bb.data, sv1cc.data, ...

 

Thanks for suggestions,

JWP
