.SH DESCRIPTION
.B xzcmp
and
.B xzdiff
compare uncompressed contents of two files.
Uncompressed data and options are passed to
.BR cmp (1)
or
.BR diff (1)
unless
.B \-\-help
or
.B \-\-version
is specified.
.PP
If both
.I file1
and
.I file2
are specified, they can be uncompressed files or files in formats that
.BR xz (1),
.BR gzip (1),
.BR bzip2 (1),
.BR lzop (1),
.BR zstd (1),
or
.BR lz4 (1)
can decompress.
The required decompression commands are determined from
the filename suffixes of
.I file1
and
.IR file2 .
A file with an unknown suffix is assumed to be either uncompressed
or in a format that
.BR xz (1)
can decompress.
.PP
If only one filename is provided,
.I file1
must have a suffix of a supported compression format and the name for
.I file2
is assumed to be
.I file1
with the compression format suffix removed.
.PP
The commands
.B lzcmp
and
.B lzdiff
are provided for backward compatibility with LZMA Utils.
.
.SH EXIT STATUS
If a decompression error occurs, the exit status is
.BR 2 .
Otherwise the exit status of
.BR cmp (1)
or
.BR diff (1)
is used.
