cmp: Output the byte numbers and values of every difference.
$ cmp --verbose ${filename1} ${filename2}
try on your machine
This command compares two files (filename1 and filename2) and displays the differences between them. The cmp command is used for byte-by-byte comparison of two files.
The --verbose option is used to provide detailed output, showing the differences between the files in a human-readable format. It displays the byte position and value of the differing bytes in both files. If no differences are found, no output will be displayed.
In the command, ${filename1} and ${filename2} are variables that should be replaced with the actual file names or paths you want to compare.
