<code class="Nm">zipcmp</code> compares the zip archives or directories
<var class="Ar">archive1</var> and <var class="Ar">archive2</var> and checks
if they contain the same files, comparing their names, uncompressed sizes, and
CRCs. File order and compressed size differences are ignored.
<p class="Pp">Supported options:</p>
<dl class="Bl-tag">
<dt><a class="permalink" href="#C"><code class="Fl" id="C">-C</code></a></dt>
<dd>Check consistency of archives. Results in an error if archive is
inconsistent or not valid according to the zip specification.</dd>
<dt><a class="permalink" href="#h"><code class="Fl" id="h">-h</code></a></dt>
<dd>Display a short help message and exit.</dd>
<dt><a class="permalink" href="#i"><code class="Fl" id="i">-i</code></a></dt>
<dd>Compare names ignoring case distinctions.</dd>
<dt><a class="permalink" href="#p"><code class="Fl" id="p">-p</code></a></dt>
<dd>Enable paranoid checks. Compares extra fields, comments, and other meta
data. (Automatically disabled if one of the archives is a directory.)
These checks are skipped for files where the data differs.</dd>
<dt><a class="permalink" href="#q"><code class="Fl" id="q">-q</code></a></dt>
<dd>Quiet mode. Compare <code class="Fl">-v</code>.</dd>
<dt><a class="permalink" href="#t"><code class="Fl" id="t">-t</code></a></dt>
<dd>Test zip files by comparing the contents to their checksums.</dd>
<dt><a class="permalink" href="#V"><code class="Fl" id="V">-V</code></a></dt>
<dd>Display version information and exit.</dd>
<dt><a class="permalink" href="#v"><code class="Fl" id="v">-v</code></a></dt>
<dd>Verbose mode. Print details about differences to stdout. (This is the
default.)</dd>
