I was following this thread, and scratching my head, and thinking of
how 'cmp' ('diff' is for ascii files) might be combined with a sort
script to do the job.
As soon as I saw your success with 'fdupes' I went and downloaded the

When I get some 'free time' (heh) I will examine the source code file,
to see how Adrian Lopez did it, for my continuing education.
