Ran a search on dircmp and most everything I found said diff did the
same thing. One message asked specifically where to d/l dircmp and all
the replys said use diff. Not one told him where to get it.
Do I understand from your reply that diff doesn't check dot files? I had
never heard that.
BTW, where *do* you get it? Apt-get install throws up its hands. Is it
part of a larger package?

I found this right after I posted. Unless I find out differently I'm
inclined to go with 2).
Thanks for the reply.
