	IBM Network Data Couplers User's Guide
		RSH_rsort can be used as follows to sort the UNIX or PC file sortin in ascending order into file sortout, using characters in column 1-8 as a sort field. The PC end user will type:
		MVS sort requires that input sort records be long enough to contain all the sort fields specified, since it does not automatically pad records with blanks or binary zeros. Make sure that all records in the input sort file are long enough when using this example.
		The starting column for sort fields must be increased by 4, since input record format is variable length. This requires 4 control bytes at the beginning of each record.

	Unix Sort, Windows Sort: CoSORT Main Product Information Page
		That's why today, CoSORT is the world's fastest commercial-grade sort engine for UNIX systems, and had been judged by PC Week's "top performing" sort on Windows NT.
		To be sure, CoSORT is leading-edge UNIX sort and Windows sort software for rapidly reordering massive sequential, or flat files.
		CoSORT was the first commercial sort product developed for open systems: CP/M in 1978, DOS in 1980, UNIX in 1985, and Windows in 1993.

	CS495/Math 475 Assignment Page
		You are to time the Unix built-in sort function by writing a script or program to generate integer vaules and to pipe these values into sort while timing how long sort takes.
		It gets a little more interesting because we are piping commands and we are not really interested in how long it takes to generate the integers, just the sort time.

	UNIX Approaches Ripe Old Age of One Billion
		ok, unix maybe american, but you clearly don't understand that unix is due to be 1 thousand million years old, not one billion.
		Universities nation- and world-wide will have just reopened their doors, after adding massive quantities of data on new students to their UNIX systems, and students will be hitting the bars to recover after the first week of classes.
		Every UNIX system in the world worth its salt keeps track of time by counting every single second since the midnight just before that auspicious date.

	EP208 - Notes for Lecture Unix
		Unix provides, as standard, many file manipulating programs, for example 'sort' sorts the contents of a file into alphabetical or numerical order (you therefore do not need to write your own sort program).
		Linux is a variant of the Unix operating system.
		For example: $ split -l8 file9.dat $ cat xaa BED CAKE COMB DOG FENCE FISH HAT HOME $ cat xab ONE PEN POOL TEN TOOL wc - print the number of bytes, words, and lines in files The command 'wc' outputs the number of bytes, words, and lines, in a file.

	Business Business Services Unix Fundamentals Module #4 Data Manipulation
		By default, the UNIX ‘sort' command performs a left justified, ascending, alphanumeric, whole line sort on any data it is presented with.
		On UNIX systems, the output of one command can be supplied as the input of the next command by using a ‘Pipe' between them.
		As always, more information can be found in the UNIX ‘man' pages.

	Index
		The Sort class (a subclass of the abstract base class Command) implements the familiar unix command sort, which sorts the lines of all named files together and outputs the result.
		The Head class (a subclass of the abstract base class Command) implements the familiar unix command head, which outputs the first number of lines of each file.
		The Ls class (a subclass of the abstract base class Command) implements the familiar unix command ls, which does the following: for each file that is a directory, ls outputs the contents of the directory; for each file that is an ordinary file, ls outputs its name.

	Sample: Typical Unix Commands
		sort::command, the UNIX system sort - fast, general purpose, comprehensive with many posible options and features.
		In UNIX shells an ampresand is put after a command that should be run ind parallel with the net command - typically in the back ground of the users login shell.
		A directory is a specially formatted file in UNIX so the sames names are used for directories and files.

		WordPerfect is an outstanding package, packed with the sort of functionality that indicates it's a survivor of the Windows world's features wars.
		WordPerfect also included the sort of character and line spacing control we've come to expect of a high end word processor, providing fast access to kerning and leading.
		WordPerfect is no stranger to Linux, or UNIX for that matter.

	Filter (Unix) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Common UNIX filter programs are: cat, cut, grep, head, sort, uniq and tail.
		UNIX filters are often used as elements of pipelines.
		In UNIX and UNIX-like operating systems, a filter is program that gets most of its data from standard input (the main input stream) and writes its main results to standard output (the main output stream).

	INDENT
		indent attempts to distinguish between comments which follow statements, comments which follow declarations, comments following preprocessor directives, and comments which are not preceded by code of any sort, i.e., they begin the text of the line (although not neccessarily in column 1).
		Indent braces of a struct, union or enum N spaces.
		This will indent the program `test/metabolism.c´ using the `-br´ and `-l85´ options, write the output back to `test/metabolism.c´, and write the original contents of `test/metabolism.c´ to a backup file in the directory `test´.

	UNIX man pages : sort ()
		A stable sort means that for records that compare equal, the original input ordering is preserved.
		If stability is important, be sure to say so with a use sort 'stable'; The "no sort" pragma doesn't forbid what follows, it just leaves the choice open.
		But the stability of the default sort is a side-effect that could change in later versions.

	Learning Unix
		Add to this the fact the Unix is sort of an underprivileged operating system.
		Unix as acquired a reputation as something that can only be used by people who learned 14 programming languages by the age of ten and build all their home machines from scratch because it's fun.
		Unix has acquired quite a reputation for consuming novice users (and occasional system administrators) whole with its hostile behavior and obscure command syntax.

	UNIX man pages : ar ()
		ar is considered a binary utility because archives of this sort are most often used as libraries holding commonly needed subroutines.
		GNU ar can maintain archives whose members have names of any length; however, depending on how ar is configured on your system, a limit on member-name length may be imposed for compatibility with archive formats maintained with other tools.
		ar creates an index to the symbols defined in relocatable object modules in the archive when you specify the modifier s.

	The UNIX Forums - comb/shell sort
		The shell sort is a "diminishing increment sort", better known as a "comb sort" to the unwashed programming masses.
		The shell sort is by far the fastest of the N2 class of sorting algorithms.
		The shell sort is still significantly slower than the merge, heap, and quick sorts, but its relatively simple algorithm makes it a good choice for sorting lists of less than 5000 items unless speed is hyper-critical.

	Illustrated UNIX System V/BSD: Module 134 tee
		In this activity you use the tee command to receive input from the sort command, send the output to the printer, and store a copy in a file.
		The external tee command is used to write to the standard output and to a file simultaneously.
		The standard output of tee is piped to cut which removes columns 21 through 40 and pipes it to another tee.

	HWG Filtering FAQ - The HTML Writers Guild
		Although you cannot explicitly filter based on "sender", there is an option to sort based on "any header" which I have successfully used with other mailing lists.
		Sorting or filtering digests by To:, From:, or Subject: will group together your HWG messages, if you are unable to filter by "Sender:".
		If filtering is not an option, you may wish to consider obtaining a more sophisticated email program, or subscribing to a digest version of the mailing lists.

	Cat (Unix) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Among Unix fans, cat(1) is considered an excellent example of user-interface design, because it delivers the file contents without such verbosity as spacing or headers between the files, and because it does not require the files to consist of lines of text, but works with any sort of data.
		UUOC [from the comp.unix.shell group on Usenet] stands for `Useless Use of cat'; the reference is to the Unix command cat(1), not the feline animal.
		Among Unix haters, cat(1) is considered the canonical example of bad user-interface design, because of its woefully unobvious name.

	Natural Order String Comparison
		Strings are sorted as usual, except that decimal integer substrings are compared on their numeric value.
		Computer string sorting algorithms generally don't order strings containing numbers in the same way that a human would do.
		POSIX sort(1) has the -n option to sort numbers, but this doesn't work if there is a non-numeric prefix.

	Amazon.com: UNIX for Dummies: Books: John R. Levine,Margaret Levine Young
		UNIX has been evolving feverishly for close to 30 years, sort of like bacteria in a cesspool – only not as attractive.
		Once the basic philosophy of UNIX has been communicated, and the reader has become familiar with the use of a wide variety of the standard commands, as well as the basic functionality of a few shell command interpreters, the reader is equipped with all the basics for jumping into the pool and paddling around.
		While anybody who has already spent a while working with UNIX, will probably consider the approach and contents of this book as too simplistic, it appears to be a perfect fit for those readers who need to or want to take their first steps in this great operating system.
