Subject: [TUHS] Discuss of style and design of computer programs from a user stand point
Date: Sun, 7 May 2017 11:42:31 +1000	[thread overview]

I was about to suggest using the Plan9 port utilities of the
same name but it seems 'uniq' is not coded to handle Runes
(aka utf-8). I don't imagine it would be hard to re-write it to
handle utf-8.
