Remove duplicates
I have a file with the following format:

fields seperated by "|"

title1|something class|long...content1|keys
title2|somhing class|log...content1|kes
title1|sothing class|lon...content1|kes
title3|shing cls|log...content1|ks

I want to remove all duplicates with the same "title field"(the 1st column) regardless anything following in that line.

thanks a lot.

CPANPLUS::Shell(3pm)					 Perl Programmers Reference Guide				      CPANPLUS::Shell(3pm)

NAME

       CPANPLUS::Shell

SYNOPSIS

	   use CPANPLUS::Shell; 	    # load the shell indicated by your
					    # config -- defaults to
					    # CPANPLUS::Shell::Default

	   use CPANPLUS::Shell qw[Classic]  # load CPANPLUS::Shell::Classic;

	   my $ui      = CPANPLUS::Shell->new();
	   my $name    = $ui->which;	    # Find out what shell you loaded

DESCRIPTION

       This module is the generic loading (and base class) for all "CPANPLUS" shells. Through this module you can load any installed "CPANPLUS"
       shell.

       Just about all the functionality is provided by the shell that you have loaded, and not by this class (which merely functions as a generic
       loading class), so please consult the documentation of your shell of choice.
