  @findex compare-windows
!   The command @kbd{M-x compare-windows} compares the text in the current
! window with that in the next window.  Comparison starts at point in each
! window, and each starting position is pushed on the mark ring in its
! respective buffer.  Then point moves forward in each window, a character
! at a time, until a mismatch between the two windows is reached.  Then
! the command is finished.  Another invocation of this command with
! points on mismatching positions tries to skip non-matching text and
! move points forward, until a match between the two windows is reached.
! For more information about windows in Emacs, @ref{Windows}.

  @findex compare-windows
!   The command @kbd{M-x compare-windows} compares the text in the
! current window with that in the next window.  (For more information
! about windows in Emacs, @ref{Windows}.)  Comparison starts at point in
! each window, after pushing each initial point value on the mark ring
! in its respective buffer.  Then it moves point forward in each window,
! one character at a time, until it reaches characters that don't match.
! Then the command exits.
! 
!   If point in the two windows is followed by non-matching text when
! the command starts, it tries heuristically to advance up to matching
! text in the two windows, and then exits.  So if you use @kbd{M-x
! compare-windows} repeatedly, each time it either skips one matching
! range or finds the start of another.
