NAME

       cssort -- Czech sort

FORMAT

       cssort [ "-c"list | "-f"list ["-d"regexp]] [files ...]

SYNOPSIS

	       cssort -c10-15,50-,25-45 < file
	       cssort -f3,5-6 < file
	       cssort -f3,5-6 -s: < file

DESCRIPTION

       Cssort is a utility that sorts input lines according to rules used in the Czech language. You can run it without any options, then it just
       uses whole lines for sorting. With the options, it's possible to specify parts of the lines to be used for comparison.

       list
	   A comma-separated list of integer field numbers or field ranges. The are indexed from 1 and if a range is open (eg. "5-"), it means all
	   remaining fields from the starting number.

       -c  Stands for columns and the list that follows specifies byte ranges on the line. You will probably use this option to sort data with
	   fixed width fields.

       -f  Fields that will be used for sort.

       -d  Delimiter that separates fields in the -f option. It is a Perl regular expression, the default is "[ 	]+", which means any number of
	   spaces or tabs in a row.

       The program assumes ISO-8859-2 encoding. Some way to specify another input encoding will come in the next versions. If you need to sort
       files with different encodings, you might want to check the cstocs conversion utility.

NAME

       sort - sort a file of ASCII lines

SYNOPSIS

       sort [-bcdfimnru] [-tc]	[-o name] [+pos1] [-pos2] file ...

OPTIONS

       -b     Skip leading blanks when making comparisons

       -c     Check to see if a file is sorted

       -d     Dictionary order: ignore punctuation

       -f     Fold upper case onto lower case

       -i     Ignore nonASCII characters

       -m     Merge presorted files

       -n     Numeric sort order

       -o     Next argument is output file

       -r     Reverse the sort order

       -t     Following character is field separator

       -u     Unique mode (delete duplicate lines)

EXAMPLES

       sort -nr file	   # Sort keys numerically, reversed

       sort +2 -4 file	   # Sort using fields 2 and 3 as key

       sort +2 -t: -o out  # Field separator is :

       sort +.3 -.6	   # Characters 3 through 5 form the key

DESCRIPTION

       Sort  sorts  one or more files.	If no files are specified, stdin is sorted.  Output is written on standard output, unless -o is specified.
       The options +pos1 -pos2 use only fields pos1 up to but not including pos2 as the sort key, where a field is a string of	characters  delim-
       ited  by  spaces and tabs, unless a different field delimiter is specified with -t.  Both pos1 and pos2 have the form m.n where m tells the
       number of fields and n tells the number of characters.  Either m or n may be omitted.
