Morning all, I might have missed the point (as usual) or even part of this thread, but, sorting in DOS is easy.
Open a dos box type sort <input_file >output_file Done. OK, sorting is based on the entire line in this case, if you want anything different, do this : help sort or sort /? And help will be displayed showing all sorts of (useful ?) options. I admin that the Unix sort is far better, as it the sort program that came with Digital C from DP all those years ago. I still use it on the odd occasion when I can't remember whow to write one myself !!! Cheers, Norman. _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
