| What's the easiest way to compare
2 directories RECURSIVELY?
I wish Midnight Commander had some command for this, but
you can easily adapt your own. Put this into your ~/.mc/menu file:
r Recursively compare directories
cd %d
find . -type f -print0 | xargs --null ls -l | cut -c33-1000 | sort -t. +1 > /tmp/00mc_current
cd %D
find . -type f -print0 | xargs --null ls -l | cut -c33-1000 | sort -t. +1 > /tmp/00mc_other
kdiff /tmp/00mc_current /tmp/00mc_other
rm -f /tmp/00mc_current /tmp/00mc_other
|
Now, when you press F2 and 'r' the file listings of the directories
in the two panels will appear inside kdiff. The script depends heavily
on ls output format.
