    PCB Editor opens a single board in a session so comparing two boards directly from SKILL, which works with the current board session is not going to provide a direct solution. You could export the Placement text files from PCB Editor and then compare them, a file comparison utility, some text editors, or a standalone program not related to SKILL, will probably provide a more simple solution to compare the two placements.
