Subject: GNU text processing utilities release 1.3
Resent-From: info-gnu-request@prep.ai.mit.edu

A new release of the GNU text processing utilities is available for
anonymous ftp from prep.ai.mit.edu [18.71.0.38], in the file
pub/gnu/textutils-1.3.tar.Z. 

The programs in the textutils are:

cat cmp comm csplit cut expand fold head join nl paste pr sort split
sum tac tail tr unexpand uniq wc

Most of these programs have significant advantages over their Unix
counterparts, such as greater speed, additional options, and fewer
arbitrary limits.

Major changes in this release:

1.  Added -s option to sort to produce a stable sort: lines that compare
the same will be kept in their original order instead of sorted by a
bytewise comparision of the whole lines.
2.  Made sort -u act like UNIX sort -u: prints the first of the lines that
compare the same instead of the last.
3.  Fixed uninitialized pointers in tr.
4.  Add dummy -r option to sum for SysV compatibility.
5.  Fixes to the regular expression library.

Please send bug reports for this software to the mailing list
	bug-gnu-utils@prep.ai.mit.edu
