unix tool to remove duplicate lines from a file
- by Nathan Fellman
I have a tool that generates tests and predicts the output. The idea is that if I have a failure I can compare the prediction to the actual output and see where they diverged. The problem is the actual output contains some lines twice, which confuses diff. I want to remove the duplicates, so that I can compare them easily. Basically, something like sort -u but without the sorting.
Is there any unix commandline tool that can do this?
