FileCompare — confronto byte per byte

Floppy IMG derived from archived files. Mount as FLP1 and boot using Minerva 1.98a1 ROM, 640 KiB and Toolkit II 2.32. Tested equal files, one difference at byte 3 and different lengths. Results: zero errors, one hexadecimal 31→39 difference and a length warning. Two small sample files are included. Basic functional check in sQLux, not a complete test or a test on physical QL hardware. Audio not tested. ROMs are not included.
