# cmptextEx proc

Source: https://ref.dm-lang.org/proc/cmptextEx

### Format
> `cmptextEx(T1,T2,...)`

### Returns
> 1 if all arguments are equal; 0 otherwise.

### Args
> Any number of text strings to compare.

This instruction is sensitive to case. The case-insensitive version is cmptext().

Because identical text is internally combined to conserve memory, cmptextEx(T1,T2) is equivalent to (T1 == T2).

```dm /cmptextEx/
if(cmptextEx("Hi","HI"))
   world << "Equal!"
else
  world << "Not equal!"
```

This outputs "Not equal!" since "Hi" and "HI" are different when taking case into account.

> 
> This proc used to be named cmpText, like cmptext but with a capital T. To avoid confusion it has been renamed, but old code will still compile.
