Hi icqman,
On 07 August 2000 at 01:01:20 GMT +0800 (which was 18:01 where I
live) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote and made these points on the subject
of "delete duplicate lines ?":

Import? Funny thing to try to do IMHO.

For what purpose? To what part of TB? Into the Address book? These are
not really addresses nor are they formatted in any way that would be
compatible with an address book. Into a message - sure you can import
to a message from a text file or from the clipboard, that's a simple a
basic function of the message editor. Into a message-base folder? Only
messages can be imported.

No - nothing like :-/

That remains to be seen <g>.

Actually this came up only last week and the only suggestions that had
any sense to them were these from Steve Lamb:
The GNU text utils would work wonders here.
type file | sort | uniq > file.new
Sort will put them all in order and then uniq will return only a
single occurrence of any repeating line.
