I've a few files of names and addresses; each block is separated by two blank lines. I'd like to sort them alphabetically by the first line. 'sort' does not seem to do this as I don't see a record separator, only a field separator.
Is there an emacs function that will do this? My knowledge of awk suggests that it's not the appropriate tool. There surely is some linux tool do do this job, yes? I don't know perl, but could write a python script to do this.
