Hi, Jean-Christophe!
sort -R brings this error message:
sort: invalid option -- R
Try `sort --help' for more information.
and sort --help brings this:

Vlads27iMac2012:~ Vlad$ sort --help
Usage: sort [OPTION]... [FILE]...
Write sorted concatenation of all FILE(s) to standard output.
Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options
too.
Ordering options:
-b, --ignore-leading-blanks ignore leading blanks
-d, --dictionary-order consider only blanks and alphanumeric
characters
-f, --ignore-case fold lower case to upper case
characters
-g, --general-numeric-sort compare according to general numerical
value
-i, --ignore-nonprinting consider only printable characters
-M, --month-sort compare (unknown) < `JAN' < ... < `DEC'
-n, --numeric-sort compare according to string numerical
value
-r, --reverse reverse the result of comparisons
Other options:
-c, --check check whether input is sorted; do not
sort
-k, --key=POS1[,POS2] start a key at POS1, end it at POS2
(origin 1)
-m, --merge merge already sorted files; do not sort
-o, --output=FILE write result to FILE instead of standard
output
-s, --stable stabilize sort by disabling last-resort
comparison
-S, --buffer-size=SIZE use SIZE for main memory buffer
-t, --field-separator=SEP use SEP instead of non-blank to blank
transition
-T, --temporary-directory=DIR use DIR for temporaries, not $TMPDIR
or /tmp;
multiple options specify multiple
directories
-u, --unique with -c, check for strict ordering;
without -c, output only the first of an
equal run
-z, --zero-terminated end lines with 0 byte, not newline
--help display this help and exit
--version output version information and exit
POS is F[.C][OPTS], where F is the field number and C the character
position
in the field. OPTS is one or more single-letter ordering options,
which
override global ordering options for that key. If no key is given,
use the
entire line as the key.
SIZE may be followed by the following multiplicative suffixes:
% 1% of memory, b 1, K 1024 (default), and so on for M, G, T, P, E,
Z, Y.
With no FILE, or when FILE is -, read standard input.
*** WARNING ***
The locale specified by the environment affects sort order.
Set LC_ALL=C to get the traditional sort order that uses
native byte values.

shuf requires coreutils which is not in macOS by default. You can
install it with homebrew.
sort -R seems to be available in recent versions of macOS (the man
page indicates a 2015 date).
There is also a solution with Perl as given here:

Make a text filter called Randomize with the contents:
#!/bin/sh
exec shuf
Text filters go in ~/Library/Application Support/BBEdit/Text
Filters. I think they probably have to be executable. Running these
command in Terminal should do the trick:
cd ~/Library/Application\ Support/BBEdit
mkdir -p Text\ Filters
cd Test\ Filters
echo -e "#!/bin/sh\necho shuf" > Randomize
chmod +x Randomize
You should then see it in the “Apply Text Filter” submenu of
the “Text” menu.
Hope this helps!

Hello!
I have a list of difficult words / phrases for my son (see below)
that I want to randomize in order to keep the boy awake :-)
I've found similar (old!) questions:

but I couldn't find out how to make them work in BBEdit (so I ended
using http://www.randomizelist.com until I get a hint from you ;-).
Could you please help me?
Thanks!
