This small tool compares 2 binary files and display the position of
differing bytes.
The functionnalities are rather limited, but it's fast.
I coded this small tool in a hurry because I needed a program
to compare many binary files, that could be used as a shell command
(no window or things like that) and that would return a simple
value depending on the result of the comparison (useful in scripts).
By default, the differing positions are printed, but this can be
turned off with the '-q' switch.

Files are read 20000 bytes at a time, and there's no limitation on
their length.
If files don't have the same length, only the common parts are compared.

After a comparison, the return codes are:
	 0 files are identical (DOS OK)
	 5 files are different (DOS WARN)
	10 a system error occured (no memory, error reading, ...) (DOS ERROR)
These codes can then be used in an 'IF' test.


Requirements:
	- any AmigaDOS (tested on 1.3), any CPU.
	- 40 Kb of free mem.
