help: compare-code [DIR...] [OPTIONS...]

  Arguments:
    DIR             analyse files in given directory
                    Input can otherwise also be specified over:
                      - the option --file / -f
                      - STDIN, receiving filepaths (e.g. from a find command)

  Options:
    --all,     -a   show all results in output
                    Don't hide skipped comparisons.
                    Will somethimes cause a lot of output.
    --basedir, -b   skip comparisons within projects under base directory
                    Folders one below will be seen as project directories.
                    Files inside projects will not be compared with each other.
                    (This will currently not work on Windows)
    --charset, -c   chars used for comparison
                    Define one or more subsets of chars, used to compare the files:
                      - visibles
                          all chars without witespace
                      - numsignes (default)
                          like visibles, but words ignored in meaning (but not in position)
                      - signes
                          only special chars, no words or numbers
    --file,    -f   file to read from (containing filepaths)
    --help,    -h   show this manual
    --in,      -i   input format, optimize for language
                    Comments get stripped from code.
                    Supportet arguments:
                      - hashy:  python, perl, bash
                      - hashy:  python, perl, bash
                      - slashy: php, js, java, cpp, cs, c
                      - html, xml
                      - txt (default, no effect)
    --mime,    -m   only compare if same MIME-type
                    This options needs the Perl Library File::LibMagic installed.
                    You will also need libmagic development files on your system.
    --out,     -o   output format
                    You can define an output format:
                      - html
                      - tab (default)
                      - csv
    --persist, -p   print result to file (instead STDOUT)
                    Saved in local directory with name pattern:
                      - comparison_[year-month-day-hour-minute]_[method].[format]
    --sort,    -s   sort data by line before comparison
                    Useful to ignore order of method declaration.
                    See --split if you need to sort by something else then by line.
    --split,   -t   Split files on something else then newline
                    You might want to split for sentences with '\.' in normal text.
                    Use this option together with --sort.
    --verbose, -v   show actually compared data on STDERR
    --yes,     -y   Don't prompt for questions
                    Program will start working without further confirmation.
