- Howdy netters,
-
- I have a file having just a few lines. Some of the lines are
- identical. I wish to produce an output containing only the
- unique lines. I probably can write a small program to achieve this.
- Better still, since this is a small file, I can just edit the
- file and remove duplicate lines. What I am wondering is if
- there is any PD utility out there which will let me do simple
- DB operations on the command line. For ex., the dos command "sort" can
- sort these lines but cannot remove duplicate lines.
-
- Thank you.
