It would be really nice if the fmt program were to honour the COLUMNS
environment variable (c.f. the resize program) as its default for the
--width parameter.
Anyway, thanks for a tool that'll make it *so* much easier for me to
maintain help message output from scripts without having to
laboriousl

Personally I recommend using awk. Then you are not dependent upon a
particular implementation of cut and can use standard tools which are
available on all systems.
awk '{print $(NF-1)}'
echo one two three | aw
cut -f-1
Get last field in line
Interested?

In various file sharing systems, and in other places, base32 notation is
become standard. Partly this is because it is a little more human
friendly because case does not matter and it's shorter than base16.
This is also partly because the two most commonly used digest formats
are a multiple of 5
md5sum should be able to just output the checksum and nothing else. Of course this
makes little sense when given multiple files, but for stdin or a single file it's
useful and allows md5sum to be used in place of md5. Here's a patch against
textutils-2.0
diff -urN textutils-2.0/doc/textutils.
Hello bug-textutils,
Please add --random feature for sorting. Shuffle all strings.
It will be useful for slideshow, music playing and so on.
