Product Information

Features of Our 'fd' Utility:

• Takes in paths from standard input and outputs a list of duplicate files to standard output
• The output is nicely formatted so that all duplicates are only listed once
• Entire path names are given to clarify location of duplicates
• Now utilizes a MD5 hash for comparing files to speed up execution time
• Can now handle the following command line arguments (original behavior when called with no arguments):
  • '-h' or '--help' prints out a help message
  • '-v' or '--version'prints out current version number
  • '-i' or '--input' specifies a file containing input paths (immediately following flag)
  • '-o' or '--output' specifies file to output results to (otherwise printed to stdout)>/li>
  • '-p' or '--paranoid' falls back to byte-by-byte comparisons of files with same size
  • More arguments to come...
