Hi,
Anyone seeing this as well? sort goes berzerk on my system when piped
into
head (or less) when it is fed with a 'specially prepared' input file.
- only happens on x86_64
- does not happen for 'LC_COLLATE=C sort tt | head'
'specially prepared' input file? (see bottom of post).
Anyone ** NOT ** seeing this?
Yes. I just tried it under tcsh and bash with 6000, 8000, and 8150 lines,
and it works for me. LANG=en_US.UTF-8 implies LC_COLLATE=en_US.UTF-8
but I also set LC_COLLATE explicitely and retried. sort tt | head
always prints
abcde 1xxxxx0123456789
abcde 2xxxxx0123456789
abcde 3xxxxx0123456789
abcde 4xxxxx0123456789
abcde 5xxxxx0123456789
abcde 6xxxxx0123456789
abcde 7xxxxx0123456789
abcde 8xxxxx0123456789
abcde 9xxxxx0123456789
abcde 10xxxxx0123456789
and then returns to the prompt.
Same here, at least using bash
