Hi all,
I am now working on a C program under Unix.
The requirement for the program is that:
A file name is passed to program as a parameter. The program will
Find files under a specified directory. The matched file must have the
same content with the given file. It does not matter whether the
filenames are the same.
It is easy to find file that has the same name with given file, but
may be hard to find the files that with the same content. In my
knowledge, i give two solutions:
1) Go throught the directory and its sub direcotry tree, and when
meeting a file, Use the stand C library function to open that file and
the given file, and then compare those contents in buffers to see if
they are the same.
2) Go through the directory and its sub deirectroy tree, and when
meeting a file, execute the system shell command "diff" to compare the
two files to see if they are the same in content.
The two solutions seems not very smart and they are very running
slowly. I wonder if there is any library function that can compare two
file contents just like "strcmp" to compare two string.
Or maybe there are some other smart ways to achieve it.
Thank you for suggestions.

"Rumania" and "Roumania" are a obsolete English spellings. "Romania"
is the current official English spelling. The French use "Roumanie"
and the Germans "Rumaenien" ("Rumänien" for people using Latin-1
fonts). The international abbreviation is RO, BTW.
How does Dan spell it?
When using a Latin-1 or Latin-2 font and writing in my native language:
"România".

I wasn't aware that we had official spellings in English.
Do you mean it's the one that the Romanian government wants us to use?

It's the Queen's English isn't it? How 'official' do you want it?
But seriously, it doesn't matter how the British, the French, the
Russians or anybody else spells it. How is it spelled in Bucharest?

Exactly. There's no "legal" spelling of most words, but there is an
official one - for english English, the OED's spelling is as official as it
gets, and its the one you;ll get taught in school. US English probably has
several different competing standards, as seems to be commonplace in other
walks of life there.

Like its spelled. The circumflex over the â flattens the a sound
some. We (English speaking) might be otherwise say ro.MAIN.ya rather
than the desired ro.MAHN.ya. That's just a quess of course.

Hello,
On a x86 machine, what is the format of a pointer in C? I know for a
fact that the x86 p-mode uses a /selector:offset/ notation where the
selector is defined in either the GDT or LDT. Does that carry over into
the pointer, or does Unix use the flat memory model?
