I've been using sort for years and I just ran into something I've never seen and I can't explain.
cat spam AA|3334 A|3826 cat spam | sort -k1 -t"|" # this works! A|3826 AA|3334 Now cat junk AA|def A|xyz cat junk | sort -k1 -t"|" # this doesn't AA|def A|xyz The two files spam and junk have the exact same first column, but one gets sorted, the other doesn't. What am I missing?
