It is exported from File::Compare by default. File::Compare::cmp is a synonym for File::Compare::compare. It is exported from File::Compare only by request. File::Compare::compare_text does a line by line comparison of the two files. It stops as soon as a difference is detected. compare_text() accepts an optional third argument: This must be a CODE reference to a line comparison function, which returns 0 when both lines are considered equal. For example: compare_text($file1, $file2) is basically equivalent to compare_text($file1, $file2, sub {$_[0] ne $_[1]} ) =head1 RETURN File::Compare::compare return 0 if the files are equal, 1 if the files are unequal, or -1 if an error was encountered. =head1 AUTHOR File::Compare was written by Nick Ing-Simmons. Its original documentation was written by Chip Salzenberg. =cut
