Hi, having to work with lists containing lage numbers (i.e. filesizes greater 2GB) I have problems. sort -n works join dosen't do as a "newcomer" expects.
Because join uses strtoul() before doing comparisation it is understandable.
("unpairable" is the result.)
Do you see a chance to extend join with a -n parameter for numeric
comparisation as sort has already?
In the source / manpage join claims about combinations with sort. Why not
expand this? :-)
TIA!
Bernhard
