cmp is a program, which compares files in two directories  (or trees).
That can be very useful, e.g. to examine in a backup, which files have
been changed / are new.

With  cmp  it is also possible,  to compare two files  and display the
differences (hex-dump).

cmp  ist ein Programm,   welches Dateien in zwei Verzeichnissen  (oder
Bäumen) vergleicht.  Dies kann sehr  nützlich sein,  um z.B. bei einem
Backup zu untersuchen, welche  Dateien sich geändert haben bzw. hinzu-
gekommen sind.

cmp ist auch in der Lage,  zwei Dateien zu  vergleichen und die Unter-
schiede darzustellen (Hex-Dump).
