Compare/iX

Compare/iX is a Bonus program that is provided with Qedit for use only by Robelle customers. This program compares two text files (Keep or Qedit format) and prints out the differences. The basic comparison unit is a line. Compare/iX identifies three types of differences: lines that are in the first file but not in the second; lines that are in the second file but not in the first; and lines that are in both files, but don’t match. There is no Classic version of Compare/iX for MPE V.

We provide a UDC which makes it easy to access Compare. The Outfile parameter is optional and defaults to $stdlist. The Info parameter is also optional, and it defaults to a null string. To see all the program options, use info="?".

  /set udc compudc.catalog.robelle  /Compare myfile, yourfile,,?  /Compare myfile, yourfile  /Compare myfile, yourfile, *lp, L2  /Compare myfile, yourfile,,"L2 J+"  

The job stream Bonus.Job.Robelle installs all Robelle Bonus programs, including Compare/iX. The file Compare.Doc.Robelle is the user manual, which you can print with our Printdoc program:

  :run printdoc.pub.robelle;info="compare.doc.robelle"
