echo GuidoZ Directory Compare - http://www.GuidoZ.com
echo Scripted on Jan 7th, 2005 for "Ring-of-Fire" group.
echo Feel free to modify or use this batch file however you
echo deem fit, however proper credit is always appreciated!
echo.
echo In order to use this batch file, you must have a base text
echo file named DIR1.TXT that was created with the dir /s command.
echo.
echo This batch file will create a second DIR text file, then
echo compare the two. Be sure to have the original DIR1.txt on
echo the Desktop. Without it, this batch file cannot complete.
echo   *It must be named DIR1.TXT or else this will error out!*
echo This batch file will create DIR2.TXT & FC.TXT on the Desktop.
echo.
echo This will only work on the English version of Windows. You
echo will have to modify the English directory structure if being
echo used on a non-English version of Windows. (Simple to do.)
