Sep 22, 2013 at 15:09 comment added Maarten Bodewes As for the second question, I don't think that that is feasible in the general sense. Maybe you could check if they are block aligned and end with a similar block, but in general you should only be able to detect identical files. It also depends what you mean with "just looking at the bits". If that means that your brain should not be involved, then you can't.
