I've used the compare utility extensively, also many years ago the
extended compare utility was used, I used to create IEBUPDTE control
cards, been so long I forget what parms to use, but for UNIX to UNIX,
since the ServerPac migration guide provided the doc on how to use the
diff command I've incorporated this into my install / upgrade doc.
also, the output from the example is written to a txt file, so I can
edit it via the Ishell or ISPF EDIT

The advantage of the ispf compare function is that you can see the changes
in the editor and easily incorporate them.
This is good because I spotted I kept adding blanks in my source, so could
easily correct this - then just save.

I, as John does use to UNIX diff command, I've never tried the ISPF
compare utility.
for my z/OS upgrade, I compare the ServerPac etc to my current system(s)
etc using
diff -r /ServerPac/etc /Service/TST1/etc >
/u/jistxxx/TST1_etc_compare_zos112.txt
the output gets written to a text file

I am having problems comparing two python files from OMVS. I can edit
them
both individually ( I can see the blanks are x'20' = ASCII blanks.
I cannot get compare to work.. it looks like compare cannot tell the
second
file is ascii.
Is there an easy solution for this?
