/Files Help
Use this section to specify the files for matching and the
output file (if applicable) for mismatches.  If the Mismatch
field is left blank and an output file is desired, the ouput
file name will be the same as File one but with the extension
'.CDM'.  The file will be placed in File one's path.
Syntax:
   File one: [drive:][path]source file
   File two: [drive:][path]source file
   Mismatch: [drive:][path][filename]
The brackets '[]' denote optional input.  See 'Help' for

/Criteria Help
'Match #' specifies the number of characters which
must match based on the selected criteria (comments,
spaces...) in order to resume matching.  'Search #'
specifies the number of characters CodeMatch should
search for a new file position.  The idea is to find
the first reasonable match ('match #') within a certain
boundary ('search #') in order to resume CodeMatch.
See 'Help' for more information.
