I'm a bit surprized that you get any output at all, as I get
with your two files.
The reason for emoazizu not being found is the DOS line terminator <CR> (^M, \r. 0x0D) in one file that is missing in the other:
Mayhap diff (if the options shown are offered by your version) could help you?
And, what are "similar" names? In a (digital!) IS environment, you have TRUE or FALSE, EQUAL or NOT EQUAL, YES or NO, and that's it. Some commands offer some fuzzyness, like "ignore case", or "ignore unequal space char count", but to find "similarities", there's quite a long way to go. You first have to define "what is similar" (do you need to respect locale features, do you want to accept typographical errors), and then you need to code a program implementing these definitions and rules, as I'm afraid there's not too many of them out of the box...
Hi,
I have a file like this.
please notice that ./usr/orders1/order_new_2627 appears more than once, thus needs to be merged.
I would like to merge the lines where the first column match
so the output should be like this:

comm
COMM(1) BSD General Commands Manual COMM(1)NAME
comm -- select or reject lines common to two files
SYNOPSIS
comm [-123i] file1 file2
DESCRIPTION
The comm utility reads file1 and file2, which should be sorted lexically, and produces three text columns as output: lines only in file1;
lines only in file2; and lines in both files.
The filename ``-'' means the standard input.
The following options are available:
-1 Suppress printing of column 1.
-2 Suppress printing of column 2.
-3 Suppress printing of column 3.
-i Case insensitive comparison of lines.
Each column will have a number of tab characters prepended to it equal to the number of lower numbered columns that are being printed. For
example, if column number two is being suppressed, lines printed in column number one will not have any tabs preceding them, and lines
printed in column number three will have one.
The comm utility assumes that the files are lexically sorted; all characters participate in line comparisons.
DIAGNOSTICS
The comm utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
SEE ALSO cmp(1), diff(1), sort(1), uniq(1)STANDARDS
The comm utility conforms to IEEE Std 1003.2-1992 (``POSIX.2'').
HISTORY
A comm command appeared in Version 4 AT&T UNIX.
BSD June 6, 1993 BSD
