/* The C Programming Language: 2nd Edition
*
* Exercise 7-6: Write a program to compare two files, printing the first line
* where they differ.
*
* Notes: `cat` is a surprisingly small program, and that trend continues with
* this little `diff` rip-off. This could probably be done with sparing,
* careful use of 'goto', but that's generally in the realm of "you better know
* what you're doing". I feel that the code explains itself here.
