Compares database schema of new and old databases and suggests SQL statements that will alter the old database to match the new database.  Useful when creating upgrade scripts that will upgrade from one database to another.

The comparisons are correct, but the SQL statements at the bottom are not quite right, they are close to what is necessary, but probably not exactly right.

To install simply ungzip/untar the file wherever you want to put it in your web folder and then edit the include/config.inc.php file with the information needed to connect to the two databases you want to compare.  Both databases need to be on the same database server and use the same username and password to connect to them.
