Ok, it's been a long time since I've needed to do this, and maybe I just
forgot how.

But:

To sort out duplicate lines in a text file, didn't "sort -u" do the
trick? Or am I getting fuzzy & old?

I have a large text file that I receive on a regular basis ( a couple
times a week). I need to clean it up for import into a database. I'm
stuck on getting duplicate lines out. I swear, I just used to use "sort
-n", but that isn't working now.

Can someone shed a little light on how to do this?

Thanks in advance
