Hello all,
I have two text files, quite extensive ones. They have some lines in
common and some lines are unique to one of the files. The lines that do
exist in both files are not necessarily in the same location. Now I need
to compare the files and output a list of lines that exist in both
files. Is there a simple way to do this? diff? awk? sed? cmp? Or a
combination of two or more of them?
I would suggest using a combination of sort, uniq and diff.
Those are base system tools.
Ah. I didn't know about uniq. That sure helped. :)
Thanks.
