+\modulesynopsis{Compare files efficiently.}
+
+
+The \module{filecmp} module defines functions to compare files and
+directories, with various optional time/correctness trade-offs.
+
+The \module{filecmp} module defines the following functions:
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{cmp}{f1, f2\optional{, shallow}}
+Compare the files named \var{f1} and \var{f2}, returning \code{True} if
+they seem equal, \code{False} otherwise.
+
+Unless \var{shallow} is given and is false, files with identical
+\function{os.stat()} signatures are taken to be equal.
+
+Files that were compared using this function will not be compared again
+unless their \function{os.stat()} signature changes.
+
+Note that no external programs are called from this function, giving it
+portability and efficiency.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+\begin{funcdesc}{cmpfiles}{dir1, dir2, common\optional{,
+                           shallow}}
+Returns three lists of file names: \var{match}, \var{mismatch},
+\var{errors}.  \var{match} contains the list of files match in both
+directories, \var{mismatch} includes the names of those that don't,
+and \var{errros} lists the names of files which could not be
+compared.  Files may be listed in \var{errors} because the user may
+lack permission to read them or many other reasons, but always that
+the comparison could not be done for some reason.
+
+The \var{common} parameter is a list of file names found in both directories.
+The \var{shallow} parameter has the same
+meaning and default value as for \function{filecmp.cmp()}.
+\end{funcdesc}
+
+Example:
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+>>> import filecmp
+>>> filecmp.cmp('libundoc.tex', 'libundoc.tex')
+True
+>>> filecmp.cmp('libundoc.tex', 'lib.tex')
+False
+\end{verbatim}

+\subsection{The \protect\class{dircmp} class \label{dircmp-objects}}
+
+\class{dircmp} instances are built using this constructor:
+
+\begin{classdesc}{dircmp}{a, b\optional{, ignore\optional{, hide}}}
+Construct a new directory comparison object, to compare the
+directories \var{a} and \var{b}. \var{ignore} is a list of names to
+ignore, and defaults to \code{['RCS', 'CVS', 'tags']}. \var{hide} is a
+list of names to hide, and defaults to \code{[os.curdir, os.pardir]}.
+\end{classdesc}
+
+The \class{dircmp} class provides the following methods:
+
+\begin{methoddesc}[dircmp]{report}{}
+Print (to \code{sys.stdout}) a comparison between \var{a} and \var{b}.
+\end{methoddesc}
+
+\begin{methoddesc}[dircmp]{report_partial_closure}{}
+Print a comparison between \var{a} and \var{b} and common immediate
+subdirectories.
+\end{methoddesc}
+
+\begin{methoddesc}[dircmp]{report_full_closure}{}
+Print a comparison between \var{a} and \var{b} and common 
+subdirectories (recursively).
+\end{methoddesc}
+
+
+The \class{dircmp} offers a number of interesting attributes that may
+be used to get various bits of information about the directory trees
+being compared.
+
+Note that via \method{__getattr__()} hooks, all attributes are
+computed lazily, so there is no speed penalty if only those
+attributes which are lightweight to compute are used.
+
+\begin{memberdesc}[dircmp]{left_list}
+Files and subdirectories in \var{a}, filtered by \var{hide} and
+\var{ignore}.
+\end{memberdesc}
+
+\begin{memberdesc}[dircmp]{right_list}
+Files and subdirectories in \var{b}, filtered by \var{hide} and
+\var{ignore}.
+\end{memberdesc}
+
+\begin{memberdesc}[dircmp]{common}
+Files and subdirectories in both \var{a} and \var{b}.
+\end{memberdesc}
+
+\begin{memberdesc}[dircmp]{left_only}
+Files and subdirectories only in \var{a}.
+\end{memberdesc}
+
+\begin{memberdesc}[dircmp]{right_only}
+Files and subdirectories only in \var{b}.
+\end{memberdesc}
+
+\begin{memberdesc}[dircmp]{common_dirs}
+Subdirectories in both \var{a} and \var{b}.
+\end{memberdesc}
+
+\begin{memberdesc}[dircmp]{common_files}
+Files in both \var{a} and \var{b}
+\end{memberdesc}
+
+\begin{memberdesc}[dircmp]{common_funny}
+Names in both \var{a} and \var{b}, such that the type differs between
+the directories, or names for which \function{os.stat()} reports an
+error.
+\end{memberdesc}
+
+\begin{memberdesc}[dircmp]{same_files}
+Files which are identical in both \var{a} and \var{b}.
+\end{memberdesc}
+
+\begin{memberdesc}[dircmp]{diff_files}
+Files which are in both \var{a} and \var{b}, whose contents differ.
+\end{memberdesc}
+
+\begin{memberdesc}[dircmp]{funny_files}
+Files which are in both \var{a} and \var{b}, but could not be
+compared.
+\end{memberdesc}
+
+\begin{memberdesc}[dircmp]{subdirs}
+A dictionary mapping names in \member{common_dirs} to
+\class{dircmp} objects.
+\end{memberdesc}
