_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     All the contents in the metadata and data portions of two input
     FCS objects are compared for equality.  By default, the filename
     and objectname slots in the metadata are not compared.  A boolean
     value is output specifying the status of the check on equality.

_M_e_t_h_o_d_s:


     _x = "_F_C_S", _y = "_F_C_S" boolean value is output; if TRUE then the two
          FCS objects are the same, if FALSE then the two FCS objects
          are different.

          Additional input signature options include:

     _c_h_e_c_k._f_i_l_e_n_a_m_e boolean; if TRUE then the original filenames in the
          metadata are compared and checked; default is FALSE

     _c_h_e_c_k._o_b_j_e_c_t_n_a_m_e boolean; if TRUE, then the current object names
          in the metadata are compared and checked; default is FALSE
