Re^2: compare two files line by line and perform a diff on each coressponding line

Thanks jethro and all , this seemed to work

#! /usr/bin/perl
use File::Compare;
open (IF,"<tst1");
open (IF2,"<tst2");
my(@tst1) = <IF>;
my(@tst2) = <IF2>;
my ($i);
my ($j);
while (@tst1)
{
 $i=shift @tst1;
 $j= shift @tst2;
 chomp($i);
 chomp($j);
 #print "$i\n";
 #print "$j\n";
 if (compare("$i","$j") == 0) {
 print "$i $j are equal\n";
 }
 else
 {
 print "$i $j are not equal\n";
 }
}
close(IF);
close(IF2);
