In some cases, like binary files, doing a diff is not possible - or at
least not very helpful.
This option allows you to compare files. It can quickly confirm if the files are identical. Since it shows where the first difference occurs you can also detect if file was appended more data.
This is based on the cmp command with the -b option (for printing the
different bytes).
Refreshing (F5) the table will reset any description. This is needed
since the files content may change, e.g. two files that were identical
might now be different.
