Howdy netters,

I have a file having just a few lines. Some of the lines are
identical. I wish to produce an output containing only the
unique lines. I probably can write a small program to achieve this.
Better still, since this is a small file, I can just edit the
file and remove duplicate lines. What I am wondering is if
there is any PD utility out there which will let me do simple
DB operations on the command line. For ex., the dos command "sort" can
sort these lines but cannot remove duplicate lines.

Thank you.

Pradeep
