[ILUG] Interesting problem ...

This one has got me slightly stumped ...

Is there an *easy* way to ensure that two files are *identical* ?

File size isn't always accurate, and I really want to have the option to
view the differences...

diff isn't suitable for this as the files in question are very long-lined
csv files, up to 3 or 4 MB in size on average, and diff tends to either fall
over or produce gibberish from them ...

All suggestions welcome ....
