+program on bzip2 compressed files. All options specified are passed
+directly to

+If only 1 file is specified, then the files compared are
+.I file1
+and an uncompressed
+.IR file1 ".bz2."
+If two files are specified, then they are uncompressed if necessary and fed to
+.I cmp
+or
+.IR diff "."
+The exit status from
