NAME
       gzcmp, gzdiff - compare compressed files

SYNOPSIS
       gzcmp [ cmp_options ] file1 [ file2 ]
       gzdiff [ diff_options ] file1 [ file2 ]

DESCRIPTION
       Gzcmp  and  gzdiff  are	used  to invoke the cmp or the diff program on
       files compressed via gzip.  All options specified are  passed  directly
       to  cmp	or diff.  If only 1 file is specified, then the files compared
       are file1 and an uncompressed file1.gz.	If two	files  are  specified,
       then  they  are	uncompressed if necessary and fed to cmp or diff.  The
       exit status from cmp or diff is preserved.

SEE ALSO
       cmp(1), diff(1), gzmore(1), gzgrep(1), gznew(1),	 gzforce(1),  gzip(1),
       gzexe(1)

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