No, uniq *disregards* rows that match character-by-character. From your explanation, I can't tell wtf you are trying to do. If the whole row is relevant, fine, use uniq and get all the relevant differences. Another tried-and-true way of explaining what you are trying to do is to give an example. -- Russell Senior, President [email protected] _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
