A new sort utility

2003-09-15 Thread Tim Robbins
The recent thread about BSD-licensed replacements for GNU utilities in OpenBSD has prompted me to share my reimplementation of the sort(1) utility. Most of the code is new. sort.1 and obsolete.c came from 4.4BSD via NetBSD. I've been using it instead of GNU sort on my systems for the past few month
