NAME

       mcomp - Compares two files using mtools

SYNOPSIS

       mcomp file-on-floppy local-file

DESCRIPTION

       mcomp compares two files, the first one must be on a floppy disk so it can be accessed via mtools.  It is
       not strictly necessary on Debian GNU/Linux, because  the  diffutils  cmp(1)  program  provides  the  same
       capability after copying the file locally with

       mcopy file destination

       but  this  utility  is  provided  in  the  mtools  package  for  other platforms and is retained here for
       completeness.
