.TH byte_diff 3
.SH NAME
byte_diff \- compare two strings
.SH SYNTAX
.B #include <byte.h>
int \fBbyte_diff\fP(const char *\fIone\fR,size_t \fIlen\fR,const char *\fItwo\fR);
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fIbyte_diff\fR returns negative, 0, or positive, depending on whether
the string \fIone\fR[0], \fIone\fR[1], ..., \fIone\fR[\fIlen\fR-1] is
lexicographically smaller than, equal to, or greater than the string
\fIone\fR[0], \fIone\fR[1], ..., \fIone\fR[\fIlen\fR-1].
When the strings are different, byte_diff does not read bytes past the
first difference.
