- Sort/Merge
-
- COSORT is a high-speed, general purpose sort/merge facility for large DP
- operations and for applications with special input, compare, or output
- requirements. COSORT sorts many times faster than the SCO UNIX sort. Library
- routines link to C, COBOL, FORTRAN, and other calling programs. An
- English-language standalone program offers easy-to-use interactive execution
- (help and shell access) or silent batch operation. A mainframe syntax
- provides extensive selection and reformatting. A robust system sort
- replacement is included. COSORT accepts stdin and any number of files and
- records, fixed or variable length to 32,768 bytes. Any number and type of
- character and binary keys can be defined in fixed or floating fields.
- COSORT's unique coroutine architecture lets users meet any input selection,
- compare, and output criteria to control record flow in their language and
- program. Records can pass one at a time in memory to eliminate intermediate
- I/O operations. System tuning/multidrive work space allocation facilities,
- and now multithreading, are available for optimized efficiency.
