I'm modifying an RPG that creates a dozen or so XML files in a test environment. After modifying the program, I'm copying and pasting the xml files into a project folder, one named before, one named after. I click on the first in each folder then select compare with each other.

This is ok for one or two files, but is there anyway of automating what I'm doing for a whole bunch of xml files?

I would use a 3rd party utility like WinMerge for this sort of thing.
An alternative is to use the DOS command COMP with wildcards.
What we REALLY want is probably impossible - not to compare old and new,
but to compare new and DESIRED and show those differences. Very
difficult, due to the requirement to pre-create the desired results in
advance.
