-- quickdiff.lua
-- By Eduardo Ochs, 2007apr13
-- Compare the files in two directories
-- (by default /tmp/page/angg/ and /tmp/page/rumi/)
-- and print a report like this (with many many lines):
--
--   changed: e/x.e
--   same: .bashrc
--
-- The first words are always "changed", "same", "deleted" or
-- "created". The idea is that the output of this will be filtered
-- with grep and awk and then blah blah etc.
-- Typical usage:
--[[
* (eepitch-shell)
mkdir /tmp/page/
cd    /tmp/page/
wget -O edrx-angg.tgz http://angg.twu.net/edrx.tgz 
mkdir  /tmp/page/angg/
tar -C /tmp/page/angg/ -xvzf /tmp/page/edrx-angg.tgz

* (eepitch-shell)
makeLedrxtgz
cp -v ~/TH/L/edrx.tgz /tmp/page/edrx-rumi.tgz
