Ah! Do you use or have access to a Mac, per chance?
If you do, it should (have not tested myself though) also work on a Mac OS X system in a terminal window ... :) :) Z -----Original Message----- From: framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com [mailto:framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of Craig Ede Sent: Thursday, May 17, 2012 3:04 PM To: framers@lists.frameusers.com Subject: RE: utility to check that all heading names are unique? Thank you. I miss UNIX.

Hmmm ... no need to make it too complicated, I suspect. I suspect a variant of the following command line (if you are on a Unix system anyway) will probably work: sort < inputfile.txt | uniq -c | grep -v " 1 " to find any lines that are present _more_ than once. (There are three spaces before, and one space character after, the digit 1 above ... to ignore single occurrences.) In my PC, I wrote my own uniq and grep years ago to emulate the Unix commands in a DOS window, and "sort" has always been available in a DOS command prompt ... even in today's Windows 7 environment .

One can pretty easily write a little script (perl, python, etc.) that ticks through a text dump of this list and flags you for dupes. If you haven't tried to do this sort of thing, it is worth the effort and will spur you on to inventing more such tools. That beats the heck out of visually scanning for dupes.
