I read this as that uniq should behave like Unix's uniq(1), i.e. removing only successive duplicates, e.g.: uniq [3,3,3,4,3] => [3,4,3] # what I meant uniq [3,3,3,4,3] => [3,4] # what you meant (But I'd be fine with either behaviours.) --Ingo -- Linux, the choice of a GNU | Row, row, row your bits, gently down the generation on a dual AMD | stream...
