Comparing via command line

Post by cpicard »

I want to use ExamDiff Pro via the command line. I simply want ExamDiff to report whether or not the two files match and return a value I can key off of if they don't. I do not the the UI to open. Can I do this?

I see the -o:file param which gets me close to what I want. I would actually like to avoid the file creation step and have it return a pass/fail directly.

You can use return value (see http://www.prestosoft.com/ps.asp?page=h ... ne_options) and errorlevel variable in your batch file.
