=head1 NAME

File::Compare - Compare files or filehandles

=head1 SYNOPSIS

use File::Compare;

if (compare("file1", "file2") == 0) {
	    print "They're equal\n";
	}

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The C<File::Compare::compare> function compares the contents of two
sources, each of which can be a file or a file handle.  It is exported
from C<File::Compare> by default.

C<File::Compare::cmp> is a synonym for C<File::Compare::compare>.  It is
exported from C<File::Compare> only by request.

C<File::Compare::compare_text> does a line by line comparison of the two
files. It stops as soon as a difference is detected. C<compare_text()>
accepts an optional third argument: This must be a CODE reference to
a line comparison function, which returns C<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

C<File::Compare::compare> and its sibling functions return C<0> if the files
are equal, C<1> if the files are unequal, or C<-1> if an error was encountered.
