I attempted to put some shell files together Xusing "diff" and other tools, but wasn't really satisfied. X XSo, I hacked together a simple little program to read the CRC lists Xas published and run "crc" for each file listed, and compare the results. XThis gives me exactly what I want (undoubtably not what anyone else wants). XThe main drawback is that it is quite slow. X XUse this as you see fit.
