Compares the contents of two registries and displays the result.
You can compare:

./systems OR
•The current system to a different system./files >compare /file
<reg_file_1> <reg_file_2>
./system2file •Two registry files in the Repository
OR
•The current system to a registry file in the Repository
>compare /system2file
<reg_file>
•Any of the above, but only view the differences between the
two commands.
To see only differences between
the two registries, use/diffonly
at the end of the command.
Optionally, you can include an argument to dump this output to
