This program is cardware, that means if you find this program useable or if you tried it then I'd like to receive a postcard from you. Of course I'd be very grateful, if you want to donate the author. The money will be used for a good purpose: I know very well a small indian boy who needs to be operated quite urgent. The parent have to pay the operation themselves, but they can't afford it. This is true, really. *********************************************************************** * Notice that the author can't be made responsible for the destroying * * or lost of data through use of this program.

I had to sort some large files. I searched for a usable sort-program, but I didn't found. Anyway, I implemented an algorithm and added some useful other features like erasing empty lines or lines which are twice or more in the file (of course ONE of these lines is kept in the file). For more information read the doc-file. Have fun Rüdiger
