Hello,
I am using Linux / Suse 6.3 and I have a problem
with the sort command:
kelter@uk01<9>: echo lll yyy .xxx +zzz | fmt -2 | sort
lll
.xxx
yyy
+zzz
kelter@uk01<10>: which sort
/usr/bin/sort
kelter@uk01<11>: ls -l /usr/bin/sort
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 29532 Nov 8 1999 /usr/bin/sort
sort behaves as though the -d option was given,
which is not the case, and which I do not want here.
sort is not aliased to something else,
/usr/bin/sort is a binary file. I have no idea
whether Suse have changed anything in the original
GNU software, which would be a bit strange.
Are there any hidden options, shell variables or
something else which could explain the problem?
Can I explicitly switch off the -d option?
Kind regards,
Udo Kelter
