cmp compares filename1 and filename2. If filename1 is `-', the standard input is used. With no options, cmp makes no comment if the files are the same; if they differ, it reports the byte and line number at which the difference occurred, or, that one file is an initial subsequence of the other. skip1 and skip2 are initial byte offsets into filename1 and filename2 respectively, and may be either octal or decimal; a leading 0 denotes octal.
