Hey there,

I need to remove double entries from a flat file on linux (output from a
oracle DB wich did not have the proper fields indexed)
I've tried : cat name.file |sort |uniq > output.file

This gives me an output file with the exact same size as the original file
wich contains the repeated entries!!

Does that mean there is no "absolute doubles" ? or is my statement not the
right one for such an operation ?

Thank you all
