I have 2 carat separated files which consist of userid(first field) and his corresponding entry in carat separated.I want the the output which is given as below.
I required first field as userid and their all differences in carat separated.

FILE 1: A1.TXT

A1^admin=false^login=true^su=true^daemon=false^rlogin=true^sugroups=ALL
A3^admin=false^login=true^su=true^daemon=true^rlogin=true^sugroups=ALL
A5^admin=false^login=true^su=true^daemon=true^rlogin=true^sugroups=ALL

FILE 2: A2.TXT

A1^admin=false^login=false^su=true^daemon=true^rlogin=true^sugroups=ALL
A3^admin=true^login=true^su=true^daemon=true^rlogin=true^sugroups=ALL
A5^admin=true^login=true^su=true^daemon=true^rlogin=false^sugroups=ALL


OUTPUT SHOULD BE AS GIVEN BELOW:

mismatch! file 1: A1^login=true^daemon=false
file 2: A1^login=false^daemon=true

mismatch! file 1: A3^admin=false
file 2: A3^admin=true

mismatch! file 1: A5^admin=false^rlogin=true
file 2: A5^admin=true^rlogin=false

I will be very thankful if anyone can post the linux shell script for the same.
