Hey, guys! I haven't seen posts here in days! Certainly I can't be the only one who hasn't gotten everything figured out!
I've got a definite "MUGWump" question today--that is, I know how to do it on the PC, but I'm not sure of how to do it on the Mac. When I burn a CD-R on a PC, I use a little command-line utility called XDIFF32 <http://www.wookie.demon.co.uk/xdiff/> to compare one to another. I start at whatever folder level I want (usually root) and it compares the files and folders all the way down the tree. For the Mac, I've found a utility called Folder Compare, <http://www.pollet.net/FolderCompare/> which seems to do the same thing (I'm going to be passing it on to a friend so I want to be sure), but it doesn't say that it checks for byte mismatches, such as would indicate a corrupted file. Does Folder Compare do what I want, or is there another utility that will do the job (and what is it and where do I get it)? Thanksamundo, Mike the MUGWump =============================================================================== I'm a MUGWump: My "MUG" is on the Mac side of the fence (since mid-2002), and my "Wump" is on the PC side (since 1989). I've been on the trailing edge of computer technology since 1987 and love it!
