Findsim is a small program which can be used to find duplicated files. It compares files only by their contents. Run the program without parameters to get brief information about its usage.
Here is a sample output of the program (for ver. 1.3 under Linux):
[sergey@hellmachine SoundFonts]$ findsim . Scanning path: . Total: 70 file(s) *** FINDSIM Comparing Log: *** /store/SoundFonts/Unison/Games/HUMAN3GM.MID /store/SoundFonts/MagicSFver2/HUMAN3GM.MID /store/SoundFonts/Unison/Games/ORC2GM.MID /store/SoundFonts/MagicSFver2/Orc2gm.mid /store/SoundFonts/Unison/Misc/EBB_TIDE.MID /store/SoundFonts/MagicSFver2/EBB_TIDE.MID /store/SoundFonts/Unison/Orchestral/southhampton.mid /store/SoundFonts/MagicSFver2/southhampton.mid /store/SoundFonts/Unison/Pop_Rock/MIDIPC_3.MID /store/SoundFonts/MagicSFver2/MIDIPC_3.MID /store/SoundFonts/Unison/Pop_Rock/HEAVEN.MID /store/SoundFonts/MagicSFver2/HEAVEN.MID /store/SoundFonts/Unison/Unison.sf2 /store/SoundFonts/Unison.sf2 /store/SoundFonts/ct2mgm.sf2 /store/SoundFonts/default.sf2 /store/SoundFonts/MagicSFver2.sf2 /store/SoundFonts/MagicSFver2/MagicSFver2.sf2 *** Summary: *** Total files..........70 Empty files........0 Duplicated files.....18 Duplicated bytes...205671580 Waste files..........9 Waste bytes........102835790 Space wasted.......102854656 bytes for cluster size==4096
That's it. Full names of duplicated files are printed in groups separated by blank lines. All files in each group are 100% identical by contents.
