<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
<I>Zcmp</I>
and
<I>zdiff</I>
are used to invoke the
<I>cmp</I>
or the
<I>diff</I>
program on files compressed via
<I>gzip</I>.
All options specified are passed directly to
<I>cmp</I>
or
<I>diff</I>.
If only
<I>file1</I>
is specified, it is compared to the uncompressed contents of
<I>file1</I>.gz.
If two files are specified, their contents (uncompressed if necessary) are fed to
<I>cmp</I>
or
<I>diff</I>.
The input files are not modified.
The exit status from
<I>cmp</I>
or
<I>diff</I>
is preserved.
