COMPDIRECTORY

GUI tool for comparing the contents of 2 directories

Description

COMPDIRECTORY GUI tool for directory comparison.

COMPDIRECTORY opens a GUI for comparing the contents of 2 directories. It performs recursive comparison for all subdirectories. It checks for file/directory names, file sizes, and modification dates.

In the GUI, if an entry does not exist in one of the directories, then it marks an 'x' in front of it. If an entry has a different file size, then it marks an 's' in front of it. If an entry has the same file size but a different modification date, then it marks a 'd' in front of it.

COMPDIRECTORY(DIR1, DIR2) starts the GUI with DIR1 and DIR2

• MATLAB release: MATLAB 7.3 (R2006b)
• Other requirements: Created in R2006b, but it should work in R14 or later.

There's a name clash with a matlab function. A new version (with a new name: compdirectory.m) will be up in a couple of days.

Very helpful GUI! Recursive functionality is great. This could only be made better by adding the ability to copy files between dir1 and dir2 (or delete them) to directly address ID'd file conflicts.
