The output of $ uniq --help
contains the line " -W, --check-fields=N compare no more than N fields in lines" but in the Info entry for "uniq" the above option is not mentioned. I checked the updated web page http://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/manual/html_node/coreutils_29.html#SEC29 The problem could be solved by adding the following text: %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% `-W N' `--check-fields=N' Compare N field on each line (after skipping any specified fields and characters). By default the entire rest of the lines are compared. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Perhaps it would be good to insert some additional remarks about how the -W and -w option behave when they are used simultaneously.
