NAME
rwcompare - Compare the records in two SiLK Flow files
SYNOPSIS
rwcompare [--quiet] FILE1 FILE2
rwcompare --help
rwcompare --version
DESCRIPTION
rwcompare opens the two files named on the command and compares the
SiLK Flow records they contain. If the records are identical,
rwcompare exits with status 0. If any of the records differ,
rwcompare prints a message and exits with status 1. If there is an
issue reading either file, an error is printed and the exit status is
2. Use the --quiet switch to suppress all output (error messages
included). You may use - or stdin for one of the file names, in
which case rwcompare reads from the standard input.
