- The 'starch-diff' utility compares the signatures of two or more specified
Starch v2.2+ archives for all chromosomes, or for a specified
chromosome.
- The typical output of 'starch-diff' is a message indicating that the
archives' chromosome(s) are identical or dissimilar, written to the
standard error stream.
- In addition, if all chromosomes are identical, 'starch-diff' exits with a
zero status code. Likewise, if any chromosomes are dissimilar,
'starch-diff' exits with a non-zero status code. This facilitates testing
in a scripting environment.
