Yes, the Vim question has morphed into a programming question, which is not
only 'OT' for this forum, but definitely 'OT' for my skills.

you have your commands out of order.
you need to use cut on the original file to extract just the md5 values,
then pipe that to sort | uniq -c | sort -nr
to generate a list of md5 values with their counts of how often they occur.
counts greater than 1 indicate duplicates.

Thanks.
I ran these commands, and I'm up to the final step of using those hash
values to look up all the matching filenames in the original md5 file.
I'm researching a command for that, as command fdupes seems to be for
files, but I need to match up the md5 hash values?
