cl /AL sortit.c
===========================================================
sort.c 7-31-91 Robert Mashlan
This filter is almost compatible with the MS-DOS filter of the same name.
This filter sorts each line of standard input, disregarding case,
and sends it to standard output.
optional parameters: /R Output in reverse order
/+n Compare at column n, 1 based
example usage: sort < unsorted.txt > sorted.txt
note: compile in a far data model for maximum capacity ( compact or large )
