This is exceptionally tiring. I don't really care what the other poster
said. You're concentrating on the one example I gave that you insist
involves sorting (which does not involve sorting the file, it involves
rearranging two lines which still leave the file in an unsorted state).
The fact is I posted an entirely different example -- which you have
completely ignored -- which demonstrated the functionality of uniq as
document and has absolutely, unequivocally, undeniably, nothing at all
to do with sorting.
