Hello list users:
I'm looking for a program, possibly GUI but not necessarily, that can do: 1. Compare the contents of two directories based on file name, size, date and content (the last two should be toggleable). 2. List the identical/non-identical files and folders. 3. Can delete duplicated files from one of the directories.
(I want to remove all the files from my winchester that I have on my backup discs.)
I know krusader can do 1 and 2, but not 3. Can you suggest such a program for linux?
There's the command-line diff3 program, but it does not handle directories, so you'd have to script that. There's kdiff3 (GUI file differencer) that also can do both two- and three-file and -directory diffs. I use kdiff3 a lot, but only in its two-file mode. I checked the "handbook" (their terminology—it uses the usual on-line KDE Help Center document reader) and it mentions the three-file and two- and three-directory options.
Thanks in advance, IG
