hi

i was think of this again and i thought of this one

Code:
[c_d@localhost pipesnfilters]$ cat f1 f2 | sort -u 1>f1
[c_d@localhost pipesnfilters]$ cat f1

the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog
this is file1
this is file2
this is unix
who let the dogs out
[c_d@localhost pipesnfilters]$

any advise on this ? any cases where it could fail?

EDIT: now i see that in your above post you gave the same answer...why would it fail ? and in what cases?
