Wow Matt , that works nicely though not very intuitive I'm not suprised
I couldnt find it. I dont suppose you know howe could I remove the
duplicates lines now that it is sorted. My idea was that I compare the
lines line by line and if the line matches the previous line discard it
but I cant work out how to do it in ant. (Thanks Jane but I need a pure
ant solution)
thanks Paul

<union>
<sort>
<tokens>
<resources refid="input" />
<linetokenizer includedelims="true" />

</sort>

Jane, I think your sort command would suppose
Linux/Unix or Cygwin?
Paul, you might look to Ant Contrib's sortlist task:

Do you mean "remove duplicates lines(not files)"??
if so, then do
