Analysis of CMD Commands: "FC" and "FIND"

Analysis of "FC"

The command FC is used to compare two files or sets of files and displays the differences between them. Once completed, FC will return lines that differ between the two files. If no lines differ, you will receive a message indicating no differences encountered.


Analysis of "FIND"

The "FIND" command searches for a text string in a file or files.  This is used to find text within a file and not the file itself. It is helpful to use the /N command so that the output displays the line numbers with the output.
