=head1 NAME
File::Compare - Compare files or filehandles
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use File::Compare;
if (compare("file1","file2") == 0) { print "They're equal\n"; }
=head1 DESCRIPTION
The File::Compare::compare function compares the contents of two sources, each of which can be a file or a file handle. It is exported from File::Compare by default.
File::Compare::cmp is a synonym for File::Compare::compare. It is exported from File::Compare only by request.
=head1 RETURN
File::Compare::compare return 0 if the files are equal, 1 if the files are unequal, or -1 if an error was encountered.
=head1 AUTHOR
File::Compare was written by Nick Ing-Simmons. Its original documentation was written by Chip Salzenberg.
