Finding first field duplicate lines in a sorted text file without uniq or awk or col using only vim - is it possible?

Did you already have that available, or did you expressly code it to resolve the problem set? I did not have it already. I tackled it as an exercise. I'm curious, if you wrote that script, did you hand do it first inside of VIM and then copied the hand code to the script? It's the most involved vim script I've ever seen, which is why I ask. Yes. I did the macro first as a series of commands in vim, then put those commands into a register. The function stuff that controls the running of the macro was of course done separately. |

Hi owl, That makes sense that you tried it as a series of commands in VIM. So that your script is leveraged to as many people as possible, I posted it yesterday to the other Windows newsgroups, namely: o Windows XP http://tinyurl.com/windowsxp-general https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/microsoft.public.windowsxp.general/sJmie_RGTow o Windows 7 http://tinyurl.com/alt-windows7.general I did not have it already. I tackled it as an exercise. Ah. Wow. That's very helpful of you. I, for one, am appreciative - since it "seems" easy - but it's not. I very much THANK YOU for coding that example, which is the whole point of Usenet, which is for everyone to bring what they can of value to share. I will state that I have searched the net, ad infinitum, and have NEVER yet found a solution to the stated problem set until you coded this up for us! https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1915636/is-there-a-way-to-uniq-by-column https://stackoverflow.com/questions/22849757/how-to-delete-duplicated-rows-based-in-a-column-value https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/104525/sort-based-on-the-third-column https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17847799/sort-and-remove-duplicates-based-on-column https://superuser.com/questions/416134/how-can-i-sort-objects-by-third-column-in-powershell https://www.biostars.org/p/271720/ https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/77406/sort-only-on-the-second-column https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/171091/remove-lines-based-on-duplicates-within-one-column-without-sort https://www.unix.com/shell-programming-and-scripting/179059-remove-duplicate-lines-based-field-sort.html https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17847799/sort-and-remove-duplicates-based-on-column https://stackoverflow.com/questions/33265934/duplicates-in-an-unix-text-file-based-on-multiple-fields https://superuser.com/questions/332268/windows-7-sorting-contents-of-a-file/332269 https://stackoverflow.com/questions/22306490/how-to-sort-csv-by-columns-using-batch-scripting https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12850909/how-to-remove-duplicates-in-a-csv-file-based-on-two-columns https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1450085/list-only-duplicate-lines-based-on-one-column-from-a-semi-colon-delimited-file https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6438896/sorting-data-based-on-second-column-of-a-file https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/278956-sort-matrix-based-on-unique-values-in-one-column https://www.ultraedit.com/support/tutorials-power-tips/ultraedit/advanced-column-based-sort.html etc. This solution of yours is a KEEPER for sure! o Thank you for bringing value to the Usenet potluck to share with all! |
