Killer application for this technology

Re: Killer application for this technology

Thank you for the suggestion. Duplicate searching is high on our wish list for a future version of BC.

In the meantime, there are quite a number of dedicated utilities for finding duplicate files that might meet your needs.

One I've mentioned before is Spaceman99 http://www.extrabit.com/spaceman99/ , but there are quite a few duplicate utilities out there if you search Google or look at Tucows or Download.com.

Seems like a killer application of the BC compare technology would be to search your hard drive for files that match a given file based on the content (or maybe a certain % of similarity). Would be a nice way to clean out duplicate data off of your hard drive.
