file comparisons

Still new to Python, but liking it.

Using Windows.

Synopsis:

I create some files in a Temporary Folder while doing some work.  

Then, I want to look in a (different)Primary Folder to see if
similarly named Files exist.

If I find two Files with the same name, I want to know if the contents
of the Files are exactly the same (I don't care about the date/time of
the File).

If they are different I want to move the new one into the Primary
Folder.


I'm thinking there's a nice concise way to do this.

Thanks,
Scott Carlson
