Old Grizzly...
i want to compare some files and see strings that are the same in both
files, i know of windiff etc but it only shows differences doesnt it,
but i want to see duplications of strings.
Has anyone got an idea please?

Ali...
Windiff shows identical lines as well (subject to them being in near
enough the same position in both files).


JoeH...
How about using a hex editor/viewer Len?

Old Grizzly...
do you mean to eyeball it Joe? BH ;-)

JoeH...
If you're looking for specific strings (and you *know* what they are) then
you could use a find/search facility - if not then it may be a big job. :-0

Old Grizzly...
but i am not looking for a specific string thats the point :-) i know
how to do that several ways. I am looking for unknown identical strings
in about 10 files

JoeH...
Ahhhh OK I understand.
