Hello,
Is it possible to run a files comparison from MS-DOS with command lines
in order to obtain same results as Unix command "diff"
Thx

AFAIK not with Textpad.
But search for "unix tools dos" or something similar - you should be able to find a diff for dos...

I am not familiar with the format of Unix "diff" but there is a Windows DOS command FC for comparing files. It is in Windows\command folder on WIN95/98 systems.
Enter FC /? for syntax.
Also don't forget TextPad also has Compare Files under Tools.

Thanks for reply.
I know the "FC" command but I would like to have same results as "diff" or textpad comparison
